RHENOGRAN® Sb2O3-80
Predispersed antimony trioxide flame retardant—synergizes with halogen donors for powerful flame suppression.
Product Description
Rhenogran® Sb₂O₃ 80 is a predispersed flame-retardant masterbatch containing 80% antimony trioxide in an elastomer binder. In combination with halogen donors—historically chloroparaffins but increasingly brominated flame retardants (BFRs)—it forms antimony halides during combustion, which quench free radicals and create a protective char layer, offering effective flame suppression in natural and synthetic rubber compounds.
Antimony trioxide serves as a synergist, enabling up to 70% lower usage of BFRs to achieve UL 94 V 0 performance, while also reducing smoke emissions. The dust-free granule form ensures clean dosing and uniform dispersion, ideal for fire-safe rubber applications requiring stringent safety standards.
THESE SPECIAL FEATURES MAKE THIS PRODUCT SO SUCCESSFUL
- Synergistic with halogen donors (BFRs & chlorinated compounds) for enhanced flame retardancy
- Allows reduced BFR loadings—cost-effective and lighter formulations
- Promotes char formation and smoke suppression—up to 40% less smoke
- Predispersed masterbatch ensures low-dust, precise dosing and excellent dispersion Compatible with all common elastomers and processing methods
THE MOST COMMON AREAS OF APPLICATION
- Flame-retardant cable sheathing and insulation
- Conveyor belts, hoses, and seals in UL 94 or V-0-rated systems
- Automotive and construction rubber articles with fire-safety requirements
- Applications needing compliance with electrical and transport safety standards
