Ammonium polyphosphate
Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) is a high-performance inorganic salt widely used as a flame retardant and fertilizer additive. APP is a white, odorless powder and its low toxicity, thermal stability, and compatibility with a variety of polymer matrices make it a versatile and safe ingredient in formulated products. As a flame retardant, APP is a halogen-free alternative, supporting compliance with increasingly stringent environmental and safety regulations. APP is incorporated into coatings, paints, adhesives, polyurethane foams, and thermoplastic composites to meet fire safety standards. In fertilizer applications, APP serves as a concentrated and efficient source of both nitrogen and phosphorus.
