introduction | zinc hydroxystannate is a white powder and is mainly used as a flame retardant additive in polymers. Although the amount of flame retardant additives in the plastic industry has increased significantly, many traditional flame retardants still have many problems in the use process, such as the widely used flame retardant antimony trioxide in polymers. Although the flame retardant effect is better, it also has the disadvantages of large amount of smoke and toxicity (belonging to the three types of carcinogens). As governments of various countries pay more and more attention to the environment, therefore, it is necessary to use another flame retardant additive to replace the antimony trioxide additive. |
Use | Mainly used as a flame retardant and smoke inhibitor in the plastic industry, it is an environmentally friendly product that replaces antimony trioxide |
