Great Lakes GPP-36
Polypropylene-dibromostyrene graft copolymer
171091-06-8
Halogenated Flame Retardant
Great Lakes GPP-36 is a unique new halogenated polymeric flame retardant especially suited to use in polyolefin fibers. It contains 36% aromatically bound bromine and has exceptional thermal stability. Being a non-dusting plastic itself, the handling, metering, processing and storage of Great Lakes GPP-36 are especially ¡°user friendly¡± for the typical compounder.
Great Lakes GPP-36 has been shown to have significantly reduced bloom. The incorporation of Great Lakes GPP-36 during fiber extrusion allows for the manufacture of inherently flame retardant olefin fibers without significant reduction in physical properties.
The use of proper protective equipment is recommended. Excess exposure to the product should be avoided. Wash thoroughly after handling. Store the product in a cool, dry, wellventilated area away from incompatible materials. Unless stated, proper storage will permit usage of the product for 6 to 12 months from the date of receipt. For additional handling and toxicological information, consult the GLCC Material Safety Data Sheet.
