Trinseo PLC has unveiled a groundbreaking line of flame-retardant resins, EMERGE PC 8600PV, 8600PR, and EMERGE PC/ABS 7360E65, devoid of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and halogenated additives. The industry has historically relied on PFAS compounds for their exceptional flame-retardant properties and resilience to various elements.
These innovative products, while retaining essential performance qualities, cater to the mounting consumer demand and regulatory directives to diminish PFAS employment, particularly in the realms of consumer electronics and electrical engineering. Primarily introduced in the Asia-Pacific market, these resin grades cater to a diverse array of applications ranging from IT devices, electronic gadgets, battery chargers, to voltage stabilizers.
Trinseo is aggressively steering its product development strategy towards PFAS and halogenated additive-free solutions by leveraging its extensive expertise in post-consumer recycled (PCR) items and profound understanding of consumer electronics and electrical sectors. This strategic move aligns with the market’s overarching inclination towards sustainable alternatives.
Both EMERGE 8600PR and EMERGE 7360E65 deploy PCR substrates to achieve performance parity with virgin materials. The company has adamantly refrained from incorporating PFAS in its production processes, with recycled content furthering initiatives for waste mitigation, carbon footprint reduction, and advancement in recycling within the consumer electronics industry.
Trinseo’s shares witnessed an 82.5% decline over the past year, juxtaposed with a 21.2% slump in its industry.
