FR-8010
FR-8010 is a flame retardant containing a high level of aromatic bromine, which can be used in a wide range of high-performance applications. It is widely used in styrenic polymers, engineering resins, wire & cable and elastomers. FR-8010 has strong thermal stability, making it particularly suitable for high temperature applications. It exhibits good UV resistance and is therefore suitable for use in applications requiring colour stability. Because of its thermal stability and low blooming characteristics, this flame retardant is suitable for use in systems where recycling is anticipated.

Graphene is supplied as a highly versatile powder suitable for various applications. It has been optimized to provide the best balance of mixability and manufacturability. Key factor is the commercial viability of our graphene. It is especially useful for improving the properties of plastics and polymers. Graphene is a carbon based substance that consists of layers of carbon atoms in a honeycomb structure. Graphene can be categorized in two groups, namely single layer graphene and multi-layer graphene. Single layer graphene can only be synthesized and the production process is expensive and energy intensive. It is also challenging to scale up the production process to facilitate use in industrial applications. Depending on the production method, multi-layer graphene can be made available at an attractive price which makes it a commercially viable additive for various applications such as concrete, mortars, plastic compounds, insulation foams and coatings. Our graphene is multi-layer and is available in large enough quantities to meet the market demands.

UV-81 is an ultraviolet light absorber (UVA) of the benzophenone class, imparting good light stability when used in combination with a hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS). It shows good compatibility with polyolefins and plasticized PVC. UV-81 significantly improves the resistance of clear coatings to failures upon exposure to sunlight such as discoloration, cracking, loss of gloss and loss of adhesion.
