Flame Retardants
Flame retardants prevent or even suppress the process of combustion during a particular phase of the fire cycle: heating, decomposition, ignition, flame spread. Flame retardant action can be physical or chemical.

DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT DETAIL
GC FOSAL
Aluminium phoshinate
CAS n. 7784-22-7
PHYSICAL FORM: PW
It is a non-halogenated flame retardant based on inorganic hypophosphite with excellent thermal and light stability. It is usually used with synergistic components based on phosphorus and nitrogen.
GC DICUMENE 90
2,3-Dimethyl-2,3-diphenylbutane
CAS n. 1889-67-4
PHYSICAL FORM: PW
GC DICUMENE 90 is a synergistic flame retardant and a promoter of non-peroxidic radicals. GC DICUMENE 90 finds application specifically in styrenic polymers and polyolefins.
GC RDP
Reaction mass of 3[(diphenoxyphosphoryl)oxy]phenyl triphenyl 1,3-phenylene bis(phosphate) and tetraphenyl 1,3-phenylene bis(phosphate)
EC n. 701-337-2
PHYSICAL FORM: LIQ
GC RDP is an aryl phosphate that is used as a non-halogen flame retardant additive, as well as a plasticizer. GC RDP can be used as a substitute for halogenated flame retardants in casing materials and as a substitute for TPP (advantages are a lower volatility, a higher thermal stability, and a higher P-content compared to TPP).
GC BDP
Bisphenol A bis(diphenylphosphate)
CAS n. 5945-33-5
PHYSICAL FORM: LIQ
GC BDP is a liquid phosphate flame retardant, which has a low volatility and is highly stable.
GC TPP
Triphenyl Phosphate
CAS n. 115-86-6
PHYSICAL FORM: FLAKES, PW
It is triphenyl phosphate. It provides good processing and flame retardant properties.
GC MPP
Melamine Polyphosphate
CAS n. 218768-84-4
PHYSICAL FORM: PW
GC MPP is a non-halogenated flame retardant for polyurethane foams, polyesters, polyamide, and glass fibre modified polyamide.
