Description
It is white powder, non-toxic, tasteless, with a smooth feeling; Insoluble in water and most organic solvents. Its features: color stability; good electrical performance and meet environmental requirements. As a halogen-free flame retardant suitable for nylon, melamine cyanurate is particularly suitable for the use of two pure nylon types, nylon 6 and nylon 66. It has various advantages such as extremely low application cost, superior electrical performance, mechanical performance, and coloring performance.

Application
1. Melamine Cyanurate is a halogen-free flame retardant for polyamide and other plastics. It has established itself as a flame retardant to achieve UL 94 V-0 especially for Nylon 6 and 6,6 (UL 94 is standard for testing of flammability of plastic materials in devices and appliances. If the burning stops within 10 seconds after removal of flame, then the sample qualifies for V-0 grade). It is formed from a 1:1 mixture of Melamine and Cyanuric acid. It has high thermal stability and hence it is often applied in polymers with higher processing temperatures.
2. It can also be used in epoxy polymers and variety of other substances.
3. It also provides good mechanical and electrical properties to plastics.
