 | MELAPUR® MC is a salt of melamine and cyanuric acid. MELAPUR ® MC has a higher thermal stability than pure melamine, remaining stable up to about 320° C. For this reason, MELAPUR® MC is often applied in polymers with higher processing temperatures. Above 320° C, it undergoes endothermic decomposition to melamine and cyanuric acid, acting as a heat sink in the process. The vaporized melamine acts as an inert gas source diluting the oxygen and the fuel gases present at the point of combustion. Examples of suitable polymers: all nitrogen based polymers, like polyamide 66, 6, 11, 12, TPU, PU. Also suited for use in epoxies, aqueous dispersion and a variety of other substrates. |
