Dust control systems
Heat exposure prevention
Crystal water preservation

Chemical Mechanisms & Reaction Pathways

Mineral flame retardants function through endothermic decomposition mechanisms, providing fire protection via water vapor release, thermal absorption, and char formation to create protective barriers and dilute combustible gases.

Endothermic Decomposition

Crystal water release absorbs heat and cools the polymer

Primary fire protection mechanism
Gas Dilution

Water vapor dilutes combustible gases in flame zone
