On course for success with nanotechnology
Abstract:
The new Bayblend® FR generation of flame-retardant polymer blends, based on a polycarbonate and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (PC/ABS), has been successfully positioned on the market thanks to an innovative application of nanotechnology by Bayer MaterialScience. Special oxidic nanomaterials incorporated in the Bayblend® FR flame retardant package promote the formation of carbon deposits on the surface of the plastic, thereby impeding the spread of flame in the event of fire.
