Applications of Brominated SBS
Brominated SBS is primarily used as a flame retardant in expanded polystyrene (EPS) and extruded polystyrene (XPS), particularly for thermal insulation boards and other polystyrene foam applications.
Core Advantages of ST-970 Brominated SBS
- High Molecular Weight: The polymeric structure helps reduce migration compared with conventional low-molecular-weight brominated flame retardants.
- Good Thermal Stability: Suitable for EPS/XPS processing conditions requiring good thermal stability at elevated temperatures.
- Low Blooming Tendency: Helps minimize surface migration and frosting during processing and long-term use.
- HBCD Alternative: Designed for EPS/XPS applications where a polymeric brominated flame retardant is required.
Packaging, Storage & Global Logistics
Packaging Options: 15kg/bag, 500kg/bag, or customized jumbo bags according to your specific requirements.
Storage Requirements: Store this Brominated SBS in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep the packaging tightly sealed to prevent moisture from affecting the EPS flame-retardant performance.
