Cel-Span® FR 680

Cel-Span® FR 680 is a highly loaded 80% concentrate flame retardant tailored for a variety of applications including injection molding and sheet extrusion. Cel-Span® FR 680 was designed to be a cost effective retardant made for polyethylene requirements including the Boston Fire Department Test and the NFPA – 701 small scale test. The use of Cel-Span® FR 680 will result in excellent flame retardancy to pass several flammability requirements. Flame testing has shown that recommended levels between 8% - 25% are intended as guidelines, but optimization is necessary for each application because of the differences between equipment, resin systems, additives and flame retardancy requirements.
