Metal hydroxides for flame retardant wire and cable compounds
Two ATH and two MDH of differing particle size and surface area were compared for use as flame retardants were compared for use as flame retardants for wire and cable compound applications. The tested compounds included polypropylene or EVA jackets for communication, PVC insulation for plenum cable and crosslinked LDPE/EVA for automotive wire. The two ATH material were found to results in overall comparable compound performance despite difference in particle size and surface area. The same was also observed for the two MDH materials. Use of properly surface-modified ATH or MDH was shown to provide favorable process rheology and enhanced fire performance, although to differing degrees.
