In June, bromine prices plunged over 13%, weakening cost support for brominated flame retardants. With raw material prices declining and demand in the traditional off-season, the flame retardant market saw weak volume and price performance, while the halogen-free substitution process may accelerate.
The annual Chinaplas exhibition is set to take place in April. At the event, we will be showcasing our red phosphorus flame retardants, antimony trioxide replacement, and halogen-free flame retardants. We invite you to visit the YinSu Flame Retardant Company booth to discuss our products and industry trends.
The whitening that occurs on the surface of flame-retardant TPU products is caused by poor compatibility between low-molecular-weight flame retardants and the base material, leading to migration and leaching. Hydrolysis of polyester-based TPU, excessively high processing temperatures, or high-temperature storage environments can all accelerate this process. Using coated flame-retardant masterbatches can effectively block the migration pathway, thereby resolving the blooming issue at its source.
