Manufacturer of polymer stabilisers Songwon has launched its new SONGXTEND stabiliser containing new polymeric flame retardants at the AMI conference in Cologne, Germany.
The conference, which ends on June 11th 2015, will introduce the second-generation stabiliser for maintaining molecular weight and colour of XPS containing pFR.
In addition, the SONGXTEND 1301 offers a broader processing window compared to the current state-of-the-art stabilisers on the market.
Thomas Schmutz, Director of Global Technical Service at Songwon, said: “With SONGXTEND 1301, we are very pleased to provide the XPS market with an alternative and upgraded stabiliser.
“The product demonstrates Songwon’s drive to support masterbatch suppliers and ensure XPS producers meet the challenges of the upcoming change from HBCD to pFR.
“We consider SONGXTEND 1301 to be the best stabiliser for XPS containing pFR.”
