Flame Retardant ABS | UL94 V-0 ABS Compound | IEC 60335 Compliant
Flame retardant ABS with UL94 V-0 rating at 1.5mm. Halogen-free options. Ideal for electrical enclosures, consumer electronics, and appliance applications.
Problem & Solution
The Problem
Standard ABS burns with dripping and heavy smoke. Electrical appliances and consumer electronics require UL94 V-0 or V-1 rating (IEC 60335-1). Non-compliant materials block market entry, fail retailer requirements, and create fire safety liability.
Our Solution
Our flame retardant ABS compounds achieve UL94 V-0 at 1.5mm thickness with halogen-free formulations (Br-free, Cl-free). Maintains excellent surface finish, processability, and mechanical properties of standard ABS while meeting global fire safety standards.

Applications
Technical Advantages
Halogen-free safety: Our Br-free, Cl-free FR-ABS eliminates toxic dioxin/furan formation during combustion, meeting growing EU WEEE and eco-design regulations.
Superior surface: Unlike many FR materials, our FR-ABS retains the high-gloss, class-A surface finish required for visible consumer electronics and appliance parts.
Thin-wall capability: V-1 at 0.8mm allows lighter, thinner-walled parts without sacrificing fire safety, reducing material cost and part weight by 10-20%.
Color matching: FR system does not interfere with pigments, enabling fullPantone color range including white, grey, and custom colors for visible parts.
