High Impact Polystyrene
Flame Retardant
Concentrate
IF-110-BK (Let-Down 2:1)*

Adell Plastics' IF-110, a flame retardant impact polystyrene concentrate, is a cost effective material to be used in high impact polystyrene applications where UL rating of V-0 is critical.
The concentrate is typically mixed with HIPS at a ratio of two parts of base resin with one part of IF-110 to obtain a V-0 rating at 1/16" for the molded product.
The physical properties of the concentrate have been engineered to produce molded parts from HIPS and the concentrate blend that have properties similar to those molded of HIPS.
Typical applications include electrical appliance housings, computer housings, and TV cabinets.
Properties of test bars produced from two parts HIPS and one part IF-110:
