Magnesium Hydroxide

At 300–330°C, Mg(OH)₂ decomposes and releases water, absorbing heat, diluting flammable gases, and forming a protective magnesium oxide barrier layer that protects the substrate from further combustion.

Mg(OH)₂ is active at higher temperatures (300–330°C) compared to ATH (200–220°C), making it more suitable for adhesive and sealant systems processed at higher temperatures or requiring high-temperature fire resistance.

Yes. Mg(OH)₂ is halogen-free, non-toxic, and environmentally safe, making it fully compliant with stringent environmental regulations such as RoHS and REACH.

Yes. Combining Mg(OH)₂ (Super Mag 150 UC) with ATH (AL FR 9) provides multi-stage flame retardancy across a wider temperature range — from 200°C to 330°C — for comprehensive fire protection.

At appropriate loading levels, Mg(OH)₂ can contribute to mechanical stiffness and chemical stability in adhesive systems without adversely affecting elongation or flexibility when properly formulated.
