Magnesium Hydroxide (MDH)
Huber’s Magnesium Hydroxide (MDH) is a flame retardant and smoke suppressant utilized in applications where higher processing temperatures are necessary.
The good news: MDH is able to take over in the higher temperatures where Alumina Trihydrate (ATH) leaves off. While functioning in the exact same manner as ATH, there is one key difference: MDH undergoes endothermic decomposition when water is released at 330° Celsius or 626° Fahrenheit. That means it is thermally stable at temperatures up to 110°C higher than ATH.
