Description

Cadmium Borate is an inorganic compound primarily valued for its role as a flame retardant and smoke suppressant in various polymer systems. This compound is essential for manufacturers seeking to enhance the fire safety profile of their materials without compromising key physical properties. It is particularly relevant for industries such as plastics, textiles, and specialty coatings where regulatory compliance and material performance are critical.

Application

• As a synergistic flame retardant and smoke suppressant in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other halogenated polymers.
• In the formulation of fire-resistant cables, wires, and insulating materials.
• For enhancing the fire retardancy of textiles, fabrics, and upholstery.
• As a component in intumescent coatings and paints for structural steel protection.
• In the production of specialty glasses and ceramics requiring specific thermal properties.
• As a stabilizer and flame retardant additive in certain elastomers and rubber compounds.
