Solvay Specialty Polymers Cogegum® AFR/960 Polyolefin

Cogegum® HFFR -Halogen Free Fire Retardant compound. Polyolefin based thermoplastic compound containing a fire retardant system that contributes to give the cable self-extinguish properties without halogenidric acids evolution; furthermore, toxic and corrosive gases emission and smoke generation are particularly reduced. These characteristics make this compound suitable in all applications where the fire behavior of cable materials is one of the main concerns to be considered in establishing a high safety level in public places.Features: Flame Retardant; Halogen Free; Low Smoke Emission; Low Toxicity; Self ExtinguishingUses: Cable Jacketing; Low Voltage Insulation; Wire & Cable ApplicationsExtrusion equipment: standard extruders for thermoplastics equipped with low compression screw (1:1.2-1.4 compression ratio and 20-25 L/D ratio are suggested), and an adequate barrel thermoregulation.Additional Properties: Bending Test - IEC 60811 (-25°C): Pass; Calorific Potential - ISO 1716 17.5 MJ/kg; Cold Impact - IEC 60811 (-25°C): Pass; Collar Temperature - 170 to 180 °C; Corrosive Gas in Smoke - IEC 60754-2 < 10.0 µS/mm; Corrosive Gas in Smoke - IEC 60754-2 > 4.30; Halogenidric Acid Emissions - IEC 60754-1 < 0.10 %; Head Temperature - 180 to 190 °C; Heat Shock - IEC 60811 (150°C): Pass; Hot Pressure Test - IEC 60811 (90°C): < 50 %; Insulation Resistance Constant - IEC 60502 (20°C): 4000 Mohm·km; Insulation Resistance Constant - IEC 60502 (90°C): 1000 Mohm·km; Temperature Index (Burning) - NES 715 280 °C; Water Absorption - IEC 60811 (100°C): 1.20 mg/cm²Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
