Modified flame-retardant PP material is a special type of polypropylene material that has flame retardancy and excellent mechanical properties. The use of modified flame retardant PP material for the casing of electrical coffee machines can bring the following advantages:
Flame retardancy: Modified flame retardant PP material can effectively suppress the generation of smoke and toxic gases, reduce the risk of fire, and improve personal safety.
Mechanical properties: Modified flame-retardant PP material has good mechanical properties such as tensile strength, bending strength, and wear resistance, which can ensure the durability and stability of the coffee machine casing.
High temperature resistance: Modified flame-retardant PP material has high heat resistance, can work for long periods of time in high-temperature environments, is not prone to deformation, aging, and discoloration, and is conducive to maintaining the appearance and functionality of the coffee machine.
Cost advantage: Compared with other flame retardant materials, modified flame retardant PP material has a lower cost, which can reduce the production cost of coffee machines and improve competitiveness.
Environmental friendliness: Modified flame retardant PP material is a recyclable and environmentally friendly material that can reduce environmental pollution and resource waste.
Flame retardant polypropylene materials can be classified into the following categories:
Halogen-free flame retardant:
PP halogen-free flame retardants are a comparative research topic, starting with the expansion flame retardant developed by Professor Giovanni Camino of the Polytechnic University of Turin, Italy. After decades of development, it has become increasingly mature and has advantages such as low toxicity, low smoke, low corrosion, no dripping, and small environmental impact. With people's increasing demand for environmental protection, halogen-free flame retardants have broad development prospects.
Filled flame retardant:
PP filled flame retardants are mainly composed of magnesium hydroxide, which has advantages such as halogen-free, non-toxic, environmentally friendly, non dripping, and smoke suppression. However, they need to be added to more than 50% to have excellent flame retardancy, which has a significant impact on the processing and mechanical properties of composite materials. Therefore, filled PP flame retardants can only be used in materials with low performance requirements.
Low halogen flame retardant:
PP low halogen high-efficiency flame retardant is a drip self-extinguishing flame retardant suitable for PP extrusion, injection molding, filling and other materials. Its flame retardant principle is based on the heat carried away by PP combustion droplets, and is accompanied by the blowing effect of an air source to achieve the purpose of flame retardant. Its addition amount is 1-5 parts, which has the advantages of low addition amount, high flame retardancy, non water absorption, no precipitation, light aging and thermal aging resistance. It is a cost-effective PP flame retardant.
