Vertex® 100 SG is a fine particle size alkylsilane-treated Magnesium Hydroxide (MDH).

Vertex® magnesium hydroxide products provide excellent fire retarding and smoke suppression performance for the thermoplastic and elastomeric compounds. At 330°, they decompose in an endothermic reaction to form water and magnesium oxide.

Vertex® 100SG is an alkylsilane treated magnesium hydroxide product that provides hydrophobicity and superior fire performance when used to make fire-rated polymeric compounds. The surface treatment promotes uniform dispersion of the magnesium hydroxide in the polymer used, providing desirable compounding rheology and enhanced compound performance.
