Chlorinated phosphate ester flame retardant ELF-601
Description and Application
Leticia ELF-601 is a high purity, high molecular weight chlorinated phosphate ester flame retardant that combines both a superior fire protection and an improved emission (VOC’s / Fog) performance.
Leticia ELF-601 is particularly recommended for polyether polyol –based flexible polyurethane foam and can be used in continuous slab stock and moulding production equipment.
Leticia ELF-601 is a single component product, i.e. it does not contain any viscosity cure.
Owing to its high molecular weight and great compatibility with the polyurethane matrix, Leticia ELF-601 does not migrate out of the foam with me and therefore insure a durable fire protection.
Examples of fire standards that can be met using LeticiaELF-601 are the UL94 HF1, the Cal TB 117 A&D, the FMVSS 302 and the BS 5852 Crib 5 (in combination with melamine).
The other specificity of Leticia ELF-601 lies in its outstanding emission performance that makes it well-suited for applications requiring very low level of VOC’s and/or Fogging like for instance the VDA 277 or VDA 278.
