Polymers

EXOLIT OP 950 is a white granular powder based on an organic phosphinate. The product is not hygroscopic and slightly soluble both in water and in common organic solvents. It melts at 200 °C.

EXOLIT OP 1230 is a white, fine-grained powder based on an organic phosphinate. The product is non-hygroscopic and it is insoluble in water and organic solvents. Clariant’s Exolit OP flame retardants for polyamides are all based on aluminium diethyl-phosphinate (= DEPAL). The pure substance DEPAL is sold as Exolit OP 1230 and in combination with synergists as Exolit OP 13xx types. Exolit OP 1230 is the first non-halogenated flame retardant which can withstand the demanding requirements of this high end segment of engineering plastics.

EXOLIT AP 740 is a white free flowing powder. It is a non-halogenated additive flame retardant based on ammonium polyphosphate which develops its effectiveness through phosphorus/nitrogen synergism.

EXOLIT AP 462 is a product based on ammonium polyphosphate. The crystal modification is phase II.
