FR-AMPS
Non-halogenated Phosphorus-nitrogen-based Flame Retardant for Polyamide
Product Description:
FR-AMPS is a white powder, non-halogenated flame retardant based on a phosphorus-nitrogen system for polyamide (nylon/ PA). This product has excellent flame retardant efficiency, good compatibility with polymer resins, low addition amount, high temperature resistance. FR-AMPS flame retarded material exhibits good mechanical properties, low blooming, and good colourability (high whiteness), which can withstand the demanding requirements of multiple color applications.
Specifications:

Phosphorus | % (w/w) | 21.0-23.0 |
Moisture/ Water | % (w/w) | < 0.2 |
Decomposition Temperature | ℃ | > 350 |
Average Particle Size (D50) | μm | 20.0-40.0 |
Applications:
FR-AMPS exhibits excellent flame retardant effect, especially designed for both use in glass-fibre reinforced and non -reinforced PA. In the 30% glass fibre reinforced PA 6 or PA66, a dosage of 13-14% (by wt.) of FR-AMPS is usually sufficient to obtain UL94 V-0 rating (1.6 mm), with less addition amount (approx. 1-2%, by wt.) in contrast to conventional phosphorus-nitrogen based products.
FR-AMPS is an acid-base balanced product, achieving its excellent flame retardancy with no decomposition and good appearance of the flame retarded compounds, and less mold scales. The whole system (FR-AMPS + PA) could pass the tests of high temperature and high humidity (85 ℃ and 85% humidity) for 7 days, with negligible blooming.
FR-AMPS flame retarded nylon exhibits excellent electrical and physical properties, meeting the most efficient flame retardant grade regarding UL94 V-0, CTI above 550V with low compound density, glow-wire flammability index (GWFI) 960℃. In the 30% glass fibre reinforced PA6, a dosage of 16% (by wt.) of FR-AMPS is usually sufficient to obtain the glow-wire ignition temperature (GWIT) 775℃.
