Engineered for safety without compromising performance, our ABSFR series is tailored for applications where fire resistance is non-negotiable. This advanced material is formulated to meet UL94 V0, the highest standard for flame retardancy in its class, effectively suppressing flame propagation. Despite its robust fire-resistant properties, ABSFR retains the core benefits of ABS—excellent impact resistance and toughness—ensuring durability in dynamic environments. Its good electrical insulation properties prevent arcing, making it ideal for electrical components. With high flowability for easy processing into complex shapes and low VOC emission for interior use, ABSFR delivers a perfect synergy of safety, performance, and value for your most critical projects.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What does UL94 mean?
A:UL94 V0 is a flammability rating issued by Underwriters Laboratories. It indicates that a plastic material is highly flame-retardant. In a vertical burn test, a V0-rated material will stop burning within 10 seconds after two separate flame applications, with no flaming drips that could ignite cotton below.
Q: What is the difference between ABS and Polycarbonate (PC)?
A:ABS offers a good balance of strength, cost-effectiveness, and ease of processing, with better natural UV resistance. PC boasts superior impact strength, higher heat resistance, and transparency but is more expensive and harder to process. Flame-retardant grades, like our ABSFR, provide a cost-effective safety solution where PC’s extreme performance is not required.
Q: Is your ABSFR halogen-free?
A:Yes. Our ABSFR compound is formulated to be halogen-free, aligning with global environmental and safety trends. This means it does not produce corrosive or toxic halogen gases when exposed to high heat, making it a safer choice for electronics and enclosed spaces.
