Flame Retardants

Hordaflam resinous chlorinated alkanes can be used to flame retard EPDM and S-B rubber, in addition to other rubber types. Tensile and tear properties of neoprene, styrene-butadiene, and nitrile rubber are also improved.
Hordaflam and Paroil® products can also be considered as cost effective alternatives for brominated flame retardants in EPDM and SBR.
Paroil® liquid chlorinated alkanes flame retardants can be used to flame retard rubber compounds. In addition to providing flame retardancy, they also act as secondary plasticizers.

Milidin trifunctional amines provide emulsion stability and long term pH control for S-B latex emulsions.
