ECCOH XL 8054, is part of the ECCOH XL Cross- Linkable Flame Retardant Solutions portfolio for wire and cable. The new grade is designed to meet Commission Electrotechnique Internationale (CEI) EN 50363-0:2015 standards G17 and G18 for electrical and electronics in Europe, and to adhere to the Construction Products Regulation (CPR) for enhanced fire safety. The new FR can be processed on standard, single-screw extrusion equipment and does not require a continuous vulcanisation line. This improved processability can reduce production costs and allow increased line speed. ECCOH XL 8054 has high elongation at break and outstanding performance in the Hot Set Test at 250° C, allowing use in a variety of applications, including shipbuild- ing, railways, building and construction, and solar cables, said the company. For the European market, Ampacet has intro- duced new masterbatches for PP electrical equip- ment in building and construction that comply with international standards IEC 61249-2-21 and EN 50642 regulating maximum halogen and antimony content. Halolite 527, which contains low levels of halogen, and the halogen-free Halofree 533 flame
retardant masterbatches have achieved a UL94 V2 classification and high GWFI. Evonik has seen a reversal in the trend to
reducing levels of magnesium hydroxide (MDH) and aluminum trihydrate (ATH) in cable com- pounds; newer formulations are using higher amounts (60-65% inorganic FR) to meet stricter fire standards in cables in construction in the EU. Evonik said that its Tegopren 6879 surface treat- ment for ATH and MDH helps reduce water absorption, which can improve cable reliability. The surface treatment also enhances compatibility of the inorganic FRs with the polymer, which improves both processing and mechanical properties. JM Huber announced the acquisition of the RJ Marshall Company’s antimony-free ATH FR and its molybdate-based smoke suppressant assets in May this year. The products will be integrated into the Huber Advanced Materials portfolio. Clariant recently expanded capacity to support
the growth of engineering plastics in E&E and e-mobility. The company completed an expansion at its Daya Bay facility in China, with a second production line planned to be fully operational in November.
