HYDRAX®
HYDRAX® ATH

Hydrated Alumina
These low cost flame retardants and smoke suppressants range in particle size from 1.5 to 12 microns and are used in thermoplastics, thermoset plastics, elastomers, adhesives, and coatings.

HYDRAMAX®
HYDRAMAX®

Magnesium Hydroxides and Hydroxy-Carbonates

These flame retardants and smoke suppressants range in particle size from 1.1 to 20 microns and are used in higher temperature applications than ATH. HM-C9 is a unique mixture of Huntite and Hydromagnesite.

CHARMAX®
CHARMAX® LS

Low Smoke

These products are a family of cost efficient, inorganic complexes functioning as smoke suppressants and are based on proprietary technology. The LS Family of products replaces more expensive molybdenum additives and have superior heat stability compared to established zinc compounds.

CHARMAX® LS ZST & LS ZHS

Zinc Stannates & Zinc Hydroxystannates

These products are designed for use as low flame retardants in a variety of halogen containing polymers where smoke suppression or an antimony-free system is required.

CHARMAX® AOM & MO

Ammonium Octamolybdate & Molybdic Oxide

These are very fine particle sized char-forming additives used in difficult systems that require a high degree of flame retardance together with smoke suppressants such as PVC and halogenated olefin compounds.

CHARMAX® ZB200 & ZB400

Zinc, Magnesium, and Calcium Borates

These are widely used flame retardant synergists, smoke suppressants, and char-formers used in a wide variety of both halogenated and non-halogenated polymers. ZB400 LITE is an ultra-fine particle sized grade used for thin film applications.

CHARMAX® FR

Flame Retardant

The FR series are superior antimony oxide replacements. These prod cuts are a family of cost efficient, inorganic complexes functioning as low smoke flame retardant synergists and are based on proprietary technology. The FR family of products are superior antimony oxide replacements.

CHARMAX® FR AO

Antimony Oxide

These products are used as fire retardant synergist only where other systems cannot meet a fire retardant specification. The excellent fire retardant value of AO is a trade off between higher fire retardancy and low smoke.

ADDISTOP®

ADDISTOP® BZC

Basic Zinc Carbonate

Fine white powder. Applications include ceramics pigment, flame retardant, activator in rubber, curing agent in polyurethanes, blowing agent in plastics, additive of ointments/lotions, sulfide scavenger – drilling fluids.
