Ερωτήσεις:
What is the primary function of TF-201 Ammonium Polyphosphate Phase II?
TF-201 acts as a non-halogen flame retardant that serves as the acid source in intumescent systems. When exposed to fire or heat, it decomposes to form polymeric phosphoric acid and ammonia, which helps create a protective char layer that insulates the material and slows down combustion.
What are the main application areas for this flame retardant?
This product is primarily used in intumescent coatings for steel structures, wood coatings, and textile coatings. It provides effective fire protection by forming an insulating char layer when subjected to high temperatures.
What is the difference between TF-201 and TF-201S models?
The main difference lies in the particle size distribution. TF-201 has an average particle size (D50) of 15-25µm, while TF-201S has a finer particle size of <12µm. Both share similar chemical properties including P2O5 content (≥71% vs ≥70%), nitrogen content (≥14%), and decomposition temperature (>275°C).
How does the decomposition temperature affect its performance?
With a decomposition temperature above 275°C, TF-201 maintains stability under normal processing conditions while activating at appropriate temperatures during a fire. This ensures the flame retardant mechanism engages effectively when needed without premature degradation during manufacturing or use.
