Product Name
GOYENCHEM-TCP Flame Retardant (Refined Grade)
Product Description
GOYENCHEM-TCP is a refined-grade tricresyl phosphate (TCP),
a high-performance phosphate ester flame retardant and plasticizer
designed for plastics, rubber, resins, and industrial lubricants.
Compared with general-grade TCP, this refined version offers:
- improved thermal stability
- better wear resistance
- enhanced softness and flexibility
- superior flame retardant performance
It is widely used in PVC, polyurethane, synthetic rubber, coatings, and lubricants,
serving both as a flame retardant and extreme-pressure additive.
Core Value: Flame Retardant + Plasticizer + Anti-Wear Performance
Dual-function additive for fire safety and mechanical performance improvement.
✔ excellent flame retardancy
✔ plasticizing effect (flexibility improvement)
✔ outstanding wear resistance
✔ high thermal stability
✔ multi-functional industrial use

Chemical Identification
- Chemical Type: Phosphate ester
- Function: Flame retardant + plasticizer + anti-wear additive
- Mechanism:
When exposed to heat, TCP decomposes to form phosphoric acid, which promotes char formation, creating a protective layer that reduces heat transfer and flammability.
