Uses of zinc borate:
1 can be used as a multifunctional synergistic additive of antimony oxide or other halogen flame retardants, which can effectively improve the flame retardancy, reduce the generation of smoke during combustion, and adjust the chemical, mechanical and electrical properties of rubber and plastic products.
2. As a partial or completely environment-friendly substitute of halogen-containing flame retardant, it is widely and directly applied to the processing of plastics and rubber, such as PVC, PE, PP, reinforced polyamide, neoprene, polystyrene, epoxy resin, polyester vinyl resin and natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, neoprene rubber, etc.
Zinc borate:
Zinc borate is an environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardant. According to different components (XZnO. YB2O3.ZH2O) and FB have more than a dozen kinds of flame retardants. The most commonly used variety is this product -3.5 water zinc borate, also known as ZB-2335 flame retardant.
This product is non-toxic, low in water solubility, high in thermal stability, small in particle size, small in specific gravity and good in dispersibility. As an efficient flame retardant, it is widely used in plastics, rubber, coatings and other fields. Boron flame retardant is one of the earliest used flame retardants and an important inorganic flame retardant.
