Vertex® magnesium hydroxide products provide excellent fire retarding and smoke suppression performance for thermoplastic, elastomeric and crosslinkable compounds. At 330°, they decompose in an endothermic reaction to form water and magnesium oxide. Vertex 100SP is a vinyl silane-treated product designed to provide excellent compounding rheology and high quality powder dispersion into such polymers as polyolefins, EPR/EPDM and other elastomers. Vertex 100SP is suitable for use in making fire-rated thermoplastic, elastomeric and crosslinkable compounds where use of high loading levels of the flame retardant is desired.Information provided by J.M.
