Flame Retardants
Flame retardants (and certain plasticizers) actively stop flames and suppress smoke. By increasing the flame retardance of PVC, these additives also help protect the structural integrity of the plastic material.
- Antimony trioxide (ATO)
- Decabromodiphenyl ethane
- Tri (Butoxy ethyl) phosphate (TBEP)
- Zinc borate
Heat Stabilizers
When exposed to temperatures above 100 degrees Celsius, PVC starts to lose its structural integrity. The addition of heat stabilizers helps the material maintain its stability and structure in high-temperature environments.
Pigments
Pure polyvinyl chloride is white. However, material suppliers can customize the material color by adding pigments. This capability allows them to differentiate various PVC compounds for different applications by color.
