General Info
Nylatron ® 66 SA FR Flame Retardant Nylon that was developed to fulfill the requirements as set out in the test program conducted on plastic material to measure flammability characteristics. It determines the material's tendency either to extinguish or to spread the flame once the specimen has been ignited. This program is described in UL 94 and this product grade fulfils the V-0 criteria as from 1 mm thickness.
It also fulfils the requirements as set out in EN 45545-2 regulation - a standard specific for railway applications - fire protection on railway vehicles.
Nylatron ® 66 SA FR Flame Retardant Formulated for Fire Risk Applications - Fire incidents in industrial and domestic environments are often caused by electrical equipment failures like overload, sparks or short-circuits. To prevent the risk of ignition and diffusion of flames, fire resistant materials like concrete, steel or ceramics are used. Once ignited however, the materials in the environment determine how quickly the flames spread, the level of smoke generation, and the time available to control the fire - or allow time to leave the scene. Nearly all organic materials become fuel for the fire. Plastics by definition are based on crude oil or similar organic materials and combust easily. Nylatron ® 66 SA FR Flame Retardant Nylon increases the safety level and broadens the application opportunities of the use of plastics in applications where flame retardant properties are required as described above.
