Vertex® magnesium hydroxide products provide excellent fire retarding and smoke suppression performance for thermoplastic and elastomeric compounds. At 330°C, they decompose in an endothermic reaction to form water and magnesium. Vertex 60 is an untreated product that may be used to make fire-rated thermoplastic compounds in the polymer systems such as PVC and polyolefins.Information provided by J.M. Huber Corporation |
