Flame Retardant HIPS Color Masterbatch
V-0 compatible HIPS masterbatch for TV and electronics housings.
Our FR-HIPS color masterbatch is compatible with flame-retardant HIPS systems. Pigments are carefully selected for thermal stability and non-interference with the flame retardant chemistry, ensuring that UL 94 V-0 ratings are maintained.
Product Features
- Compatible with V-0 FR-HIPS
- Non-interference with flame retardant
- Halogen and halogen-free FR compatible
- Maintains processing stability
- Good color uniformity
