Applications

Zinc Borate is a multi-functional synergistic flame retardant, added in polymers with

other flame retardants (such as Antimony Oxide) to improve flame retardant

performance.

Zinc Borate is widely used in PVC applications such as carpet, conveyor belt, wire

and cable, and in Nylon, PE, PP and other engineering plastics of halogen free

flame retardant systems based on Al(OH)3 and Mg(OH)2, intumescent

coating and painting, ceramic glaze, milk glass, decorative paper and other

fields.

Zinc Borate is also used in wood composite as fungicide to prevent from

decay fungi and subterranean termites.

FARETAR^TM ZB grade's particle size is the smallest, it is recommended

to wire and cable applications that need much fine particle size fields.
