FRX™ 100
FRX Homopolymers have exceptionally high limiting oxygen index, which makes them particularly well suited to be used as a "melt processable" FR additive. They are transparent high flowing polymers with a glass transition temperature of between 100°C and 107°C. A range of molecular weights can also be produced.
