In modern society, with the development of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, the process of urbanization is accelerating, and high-rise buildings, underground transportation, electronic appliances and other facilities are constantly increasing. Fire safety has become an issue that cannot be ignored by everyone. Magnesium hydroxide(MH), as a new type of non halogenated environmentally friendly flame retardant, is gradually entering the public eye and becoming a major highlight in the field of materials science.

The miraculous properties of magnesium hydroxide

Magnesium hydroxide can release bound water at high temperatures,absorb a large amount of heat,effectively reduce the surface temperature of the material,and thus play a role in flame retardancy.This process not only prevents the spread of flames,but also dilutes combustible gases,inhibits the decomposition of polymers,forms a protective magnesium oxide film,isolates air,and prevents the fire from further spreading.

From high-end dependence to independent research and development

For a long time,the high-end magnesium hydroxide flame retardant market in China has been almost monopolized by foreign manufacturers.However,the team led by Li Lijuan from the Qinghai Salt Lake Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has successfully developed a domestically produced high-purity magnesium hydroxide flame retardant through unremitting efforts,breaking down technical barriers and achieving a major breakthrough in independent intellectual property rights.This achievement not only signifies an increase in China's voice in the global magnesium hydroxide market,but also brings new opportunities for the development of related industries domestically.

Widely applicable and promising for the future

Magnesium hydroxide flame retardant is widely used in various fields such as textiles,synthetic rubber,wires and cables,plastics,etc.due to its non-toxic and harmless nature,good smoke suppression effect,and high safety and reliability.Especially in fields with extremely high safety requirements,such as communication equipment,high-speed railway insulation materials,nuclear power plant wires and cables,magnesium hydroxide plays an irreplaceable role.

The road to industrialization is long and arduous

Although China has mastered the core technology of magnesium hydroxide flame retardant,the road to industrialization is not smooth sailing.From laboratory to large-scale production,a series of technical challenges and market challenges need to be overcome.Fortunately,the country has introduced a series of policies to support the development of environmentally friendly flame retardants,paving the way for the industrialization of magnesium hydroxide flame retardants.

Epilogue

The rise of magnesium hydroxide flame retardants is not only a significant advancement in the field of materials science,but also an important milestone in environmental protection.With the continuous improvement of technology and the expansion of applications,we have reason to believe that this green and safe"fireproof artifact"will play a more important role in the future,providing solid guarantees for the safety of human life and property.Let's look forward to the wonderful performance of magnesium hydroxide flame retardant in more fields together!
