PA66 flame-retardant grades SN series
Next Generation Halogen & Red Phosphorus Free PA66 Flame Retardant Series
In recent years, the demand for halogen and red phosphorus-free products have increased as markets become more focused on reducing their environmental impact and improving worker safety.
As a solution, Asahi Kasei developed LEONA™ SN, an innovative grade which uses non-halogen and red phosphorus flame retardant. This grade offers exclusive features and benefits: excellent heat resistance, high strength and stiffness under wet condition, and improved processability such as mold deposit and metal corrosion.
In addition to its non-halogen and non-red phosphorus characteristics, LEONA™ SN series has excellent laser printability and laser transparency, resulting in higher laser weldability.
LEONA™ SN series also features excellent low smoke properties due to the presence of aromatic PA. LEONA™ SN series has been certified HL3 by the European railroad standard (EN45545-2).
The target applications for R22/R23 are the following small component.
Terminal blocks, transformers, circuit breakers, contactors, inductors, connectors, wiring ducts, coils and other minor components, etc.
