ADP-30 (Aluminum Diethyl Phosphinate)

Density	approx. 1.35 g/cm³
Appearance	white powder
Application	ADP-30 is suited as flame retardant for thermoplastics and thermosets. Due to its high phosphorus content the product is distinguished by a high efficiency. ADP-30 can even be applied in high temperature polyamides because of its high temperature stability. It is suitable for both glass fibre reinforced and unreinforced grades. The flame retardant polyamide compounds exhibit very good physical and electrical properties. In high temperature polyamides of PA 6T/66 type, a dosage of approx. 10 % (by wt.) ADP-30 is usually sufficient to obtain the UL 94 V-0 classification for electrical compounds (at 1.6 as well as 0.8 mm thicknesses). Subject to the polymer grade, processing conditions and glass fibre reinforcement the dosage of the flame retardant may vary.
Storage	The product should be stored in a dry place at room temperature.
Bulk Density	approx. 400 - 600 kg/m³
Content	Phosphorus, 23.0 - 24.0%
Decomposition Temperature	> 350 °C
Feature	Non-hygroscopic, not hydrolyzed and not precipitated Suited as flame retardant for thermoplastics and thermosets High efficiency due to its high phosphorus content UL 94 V-0 rating down to 0.4 mm thickness Excellent heat stability in machining, suited for processing temperatures up to 350 °C Suitable for both glass fiber reinforced and unreinforced grades The flame retardant polyamide compounds exhibit very good physical and excellent electrical properties Suitable for lead free soldering Good colorability Non-halogenated flame retardant with favorable environmental and health profile
Moisture Content	max. 0.5%
Notes	Before incorporating ADP-30, it is important to predry the polymer as usual. If possible, the resulting moisture content should be below 0.1 % (by wt.) . Predrying of ADP-30 is not necessary. However, predrying (e. g. 4h at 120 °C) is recommended, if even very low moisture contents must be avoided. The mixing and processing methods customary in powder processing of polymers can be used with ADP-30. The optimum conditions for incorporating should be determined in each individual case. Care must be taken to ensure homogeneous dispersion of all components. The temperature of the polymer melt should not exceed 350 °C.
Packaging	25 kg /bag
Pore Size	20 - 40 µm(D50)
