Products Description of Melamine Phosphate (MP) CAS#20208-95-1
Melamine phosphate (MP) is a highly efficient halogen-free flame retardant. It is typically supplied as a white powder with the molecular formula C₃H₉N₆O₄P and a molecular weight of 224.12. It is slightly soluble in water (3.9 g/L at 20°C) and methanol, while exhibiting good chemical stability under normal ambient conditions.
Melamine phosphate is primarily used in plastics, coatings, and textile materials, where it enhances flame resistance by releasing non-flammable gases, such as nitrogen, and promoting the formation of a protective char layer to inhibit the spread of fire.
