- Advantages Over Conventional Antimony Trioxide Systems
- Better penetration of the substrate.
- Less pigmenting or whitening effect for deep mass tone colors.
- Easier handling and processing: Liquid dispersions will not clog spray guns.
- High flame retardant efficiency for minimal added weight or change in hand.
- Greater cost effectiveness and improved color matching in mass tone colors.
- Translucency for applications such as coatings, films, and laminates.
- Suspension stability in low viscosity systems.
- Maintenance of physical properties in thin films and fine denier fibers.
- Easy compounding; no special dispersing equipment required.
- High FR efficiency for minimal added weight or change in hand.

- Use Level
- 1.5 - 8 % (In textile, paper, and plastics applications), 5 - 20 % (halogen use level)
- Usage Level
- The usage level of the various grades depends on the material being treated, the test procedure, the ratio of halogen to antimony oxide, and other ingredients being used.
- It is not possible to predict flame retardance performance; therefore, experimental evaluation is required.
- Typical ratios of halogen to antimony are 5:1 to 2:1.
