Melagard

Melagard MP is a halogen-free flame retardant and smoke suppressant based on a salt of melamine and phosphoric acid. It is designed for use in thermoplastics, polyolefins, elastomers, engineering resins, paints, and intumescent fire retardant coatings. It can partially replace ammonium polyphosphate (APP). This odor-free powder is compatible with polyolefins, elastomers, and other thermoplastics, and is suitable for thermoforming and injection molding processes. Melagard MP is ideal for applications requiring flame retardant properties without the use of halogens.

Melagard MC 25 is a salt of melamine and cyanuric acid, used as a halogen-free flame retardant and smoke suppressant agent for organic polymers. It is compatible with a wide range of polymers including epoxies (EP), polyesters, polyolefins, polyamides (PA 6 and PA 66), and polyurethane (PU) foam. This powder-form product is employed in various processing methods such as extrusion, injection molding, compression molding, and compounding. With good thermal stability, it provides enhanced flame retardancy and smoke suppression, and is also suitable for industrial oils and fluids in lubricant applications.

Melagard P37 is a highly efficient, halogen-free intumescent flame retardant system used in polyolefins (PP, PE, EVA) and various rubber systems. Unlike Ammonium Polyphosphate-based systems, Melagard P37 is composed of phosphorus and nitrogen in an optimized ratio within a single molecule. It provides high flame retardancy, reduced smoke emissions, and lower release of toxic or corrosive gases. Other benefits include low specific gravity, low water sensitivity, high thermal stability, and ease of dispersion in polymer matrices. It was previously introduced as "EXP PP/37".
