Today, I have compiled a news article about the use of flame retardants in China: In the United States, the national standards for flame retardant masterbatch are very strict, and their enforcement and supervision are also very effective. For example, when conducting a flame retardant performance test on a television, pouring a burning candle onto the television will only burn a black hole in it and will not cause a fire. According to research data, in the United States, testing one million televisions for brominated flame retardants did not result in any casualties. The United States not only has such strict requirements for domestically produced products, but also for imported products.
Under such strict US national standards, can our domestic products pass flame retardant tests if they are to be exported? It can definitely pass the test, "said Zhou Zhengmao, Secretary General of the China Flame Retardant Society and a flame retardant expert, confidently to reporters. He said that there are currently more than 1000 enterprises in China that produce flame retardants, and their technical level and business situation are both good. In addition, there are a number of domestic scientific research institutes whose research and development level of flame retardants has kept pace with that of advanced countries. For example, the research and development level of the State Key Laboratory of Fire Science of University of Science and Technology of China and the Provincial Key Laboratory of Degradation and Flame Retardant Polymer Materials of Sichuan University are in the forefront of the world.
Qin Jianjun, an engineer at Jiangsu Yak Technology Co., Ltd., said that the company's flame retardants have good sales, but mainly meet foreign demand. Even if the product is sold to domestic customers, the flame-retardant products produced by customers are all for export. That is to say, almost all domestic flame retardants have been exported in the end. My client joked that those who don't buy flame retardants are mainly domestic enterprises, while those who buy flame retardants are mainly export enterprises
