Market Trends
• Automotive– Increasing concerns regarding VOC / FOG– Manufacturer standards vary
• Daimler – most stringent specification• Audi / VW – stringent requirements• Then most others
– Recent discussion of TDCP use in Europe & US• Minimal interest in alternatives at this time
![Page 11: New Product Development in Flame Retardants for the ...€¦ · Market Trends • IKEA – Furniture foam applications – Updated specification (IOS-MAT-0010, version 9) • effective](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042115/5e92047ba30e356ac6486d3d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Market Trends
• There is a growing awareness regarding the presence of VOC’s in flexible polyurethane foam
• IKEA has taken a step forward to limit VOC’s in their products; a move that will no doubt impact furniture as well as other end use markets
• Halogen Free– Additive, Reactive and Polymeric
• Reactive / Polymeric FR product solutions– Reactive Halogen and/or Phosphorus solutions– Polymeric Halogen and/or Phosphorus solutions
![Page 12: New Product Development in Flame Retardants for the ...€¦ · Market Trends • IKEA – Furniture foam applications – Updated specification (IOS-MAT-0010, version 9) • effective](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042115/5e92047ba30e356ac6486d3d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
New Product Developments From ICL-IP
• Work presented today is focused on Halogen-Free solutions that pass the new IKEA standard– Four new developmental products are presented
• E08-16T – low scorch hal-free FR (not TSCA listed)• E10-55 – moderate scorch hal-free FR (not TSCA listed)• E10-54 – moderate scorch hal-free FR (TSCA listed)• E10-59 – moderate scorch hal-free FR (TSCA listed)

Flexible Foam Flame Retardant Development
• Foams with like densities, air flows, and overall foam quality are produced and tested
• Results are compared to known commercial flame retardants – Fyrol FR-2 (TDCP), Fyrol HF-4 & Fyrol PNX– Flammability – loading levels (FR efficiency)– Discoloration – scorch potential– Foam physical properties

Flexible Foam Discoloration
• Oven Scorch Method– Recently developed by ICL-Industrial Products– Evaluates the impact of flame retardants and anti-
scorch packages on scorch propensity in foams– Increasing time on the graphs represent
increasingly severe foaming conditions• High water formulations• Longer cooling times• Higher ambient temperatures and humidity

Future Activities
• ICL-IP will continue to defend the use of safe and effective FR products
• Our work will continue to be guided by public perception and demand for low VOC products, with particular focus on halogen-free, reactive and/or polymeric flame retardant products
• Future efforts are focused on commercialization of the products presented earlier and continuing the synthetic and process development activities required to bring the next generation of low VOC FR products to the flexible foam market
