The four new grades use an organo-phosphorus FR agent. One grade is unfilled and three are reinforce with 10% to 30% glass. Heat stability up to 300 C, absence of migration and emissions, and easy colorability are said to distinguish them from other phosphorus-based FR compounds. The new grades also reportedly retain the mechanical and electrical properties of standard PBTs. They offer low density, high tracking resistance, and good uv stability.
