Brucite powder modified PVC: green flame retardant solution for plastic steel door and window industry

Brucite powder (Mg(OH)2), due to its excellent performance, has become an indispensable inorganic flame retardant and filler in the plastics industry. In the modification of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) materials, the addition of brucite powder significantly improves the overall performance of the material. Especially in the field of plastic steel doors and windows, this modified material shows the following advantages:

Improve flame retardant performance: As an efficient halogen-free flame retardant, brucite powder decomposes under high temperature conditions to produce water vapor, which effectively absorbs heat and dilutes flammable gases to prevent the spread of flames. This is crucial to improving the safety of plastic steel doors and windows.

Enhance weather resistance: The addition of brucite powder can improve the resistance of PVC materials to ultraviolet rays, reduce material aging caused by long-term outdoor exposure, and extend the service life of doors and windows.

Improve mechanical properties: Adding an appropriate amount of brucite powder can enhance the hardness and strength of PVC composite materials and improve the durability of doors and windows made.

Environmental protection: As a non-toxic and harmless natural mineral filler, brucite powder meets the requirements of green environmental protection and helps to produce more environmentally friendly plastic steel door and window products.

Cost-effectiveness: Although the addition of brucite powder may slightly increase the cost of raw materials, it can reduce the use of other expensive additives and improve the overall performance of the product, which has good economics for manufacturers in the long run.

The application of brucite powder modified PVC in the field of plastic steel doors and windows can not only improve the physical and chemical properties of the product and meet the needs of use in different environments, but also promote the development of green building materials and provide users with safer and more reliable choices. This material modification technology has undoubtedly brought new development directions and market competitiveness to the plastic steel doors and windows industry.
