VERTEX 100SG

Vertexmagnesium hydroxide products provide excellent fire retarding and smoke suppression performance for thermoplastic, elastomeric and crosslinkable compounds. At 330, they decompose in an endothermicreaction to form water and magnesium oxide. Vertex 100SG is an alkylsilane treated magnesium hydroxide product that provides hydrophobicity and superior fire performance when used to make fire-rated polymeric compounds. The surface treatment promotes uniform dispersion of the magnesium hydroxide in the polymer used, providing desirable compounding rheology and enhanced compound performance.
