Layered silicate "CLOISITE-20 A"

It is possible to reduce the amount of added aluminum hydroxide or magnesium hydroxide!

"CLOISITE-20 A" is a layered silicate suitable as a flame retardant additive for halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastics, as well as for improving the physical properties and gas barrier characteristics of thermoplastic compounds. The gas barrier properties against oxygen, water vapor, and hydrocarbon molecules can be enhanced by using this product. Additionally, in thermoplastics such as polyamide (PA) and bioplastics like polylactide (PLA), it increases melt viscosity and enables improved dimensional stability during profile extrusion. 【Features】 ■ Improves flame retardant properties, anti-dripping characteristics, and char formation ability, making it particularly suitable for halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastic compounds. ■ Can reduce the amount of aluminum/magnesium hydroxide added. ■ Enhances productivity and physical properties while reducing specific gravity. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
