Magnesium Hydroxide for High-Performance Wire & Cable Applications

Release time:2026-10-27 Visits:0

As the wire & cable industry continues to move toward halogen-free, low-smoke and environmentally friendly flame-retardant solutions, Magnesium Hydroxide (MDH) has become an increasingly important inorganic flame retardant.

At Weifang Wanfeng New Material Technology Co., Ltd., we specialize in the development and production of high-performance Magnesium Hydroxide for wire and cable applications.

Why Magnesium Hydroxide?

Magnesium Hydroxide offers several advantages when used in LSZH/LSHF cable compounds, PVC, PE, PP, CPE and other polymer systems:

🔥 Excellent Flame Retardancy
It decomposes at high temperatures and releases water, helping absorb heat and reduce the temperature of the polymer during combustion.

💨 Low Smoke & Halogen-Free
MDH helps reduce smoke generation and provides a halogen-free flame-retardant solution, making it suitable for applications where low smoke and low toxicity are important.

🌱 Environmentally Friendly
As an inorganic, halogen-free flame retardant, Magnesium Hydroxide is widely used in environmentally conscious cable formulations.

⚙️ Suitable for Different Cable Compounds
Our MDH grades can be used in LSZH cable materials, cable sheathing, insulation compounds, PVC cables, PE/PP compounds and rubber-based cable materials.

Customized Solutions for Different Cable Formulations

Wanfeng provides different types of Magnesium Hydroxide, including:

• Mineral-method Magnesium Hydroxide
• Chemical-method Magnesium Hydroxide
• Hexagonal platelet Magnesium Hydroxide
• Surface-modified Magnesium Hydroxide

Different grades are available according to requirements for particle size, purity, surface treatment, dispersion, flame-retardant performance and processing characteristics.

We also support customized product development according to customers' specific formulations and processing conditions.

From Material to Application

Our goal is not simply to supply Magnesium Hydroxide, but to provide a suitable flame-retardant solution for each cable formulation.

If you are looking for a reliable Magnesium Hydroxide supplier for wire & cable applications, we would be pleased to discuss your current formulation and recommend a suitable grade.
