Non-Halogen Intumescent Flame Retardants
Developed for safer end-use products, PAG’s halogen-free intumescent additives support char formation and stable processing.
Charmax™ Non-Halogen Product Line
PAG’s Charmax™ line includes non-halogenated flame retardants manufactured in Indiana and engineered for intumescent performance in coatings and polymer systems requiring stability and consistent results.
Why Use Intumescent Systems?
PAG’s non-halogenated flame retardants are engineered for performance-driven, compliance-focused formulations where smoke behavior, thermal stability, and processing consistency matter. These flame retardant additives are commonly selected for polyolefins, polyurethanes, and specialty resins to deliver dependable results in production-scale compounding.
Halogen-Free Performance Support
Designed for end applications where halogen-free formulations are preferred or required. Supports compliance-driven performance goals without sacrificing processing stability.
Thermal Stability & Low Solubility
Engineered to maintain performance under elevated processing temperatures while minimizing water solubility—supporting long-term formulation integrity and consistent results.
Char Formation Under Heat
Intumescent systems expand when exposed to heat, forming protective char layers that help slow flame spread and improve fire resistance in targeted polymer end applications.
