World’s first additive for Magnesium-blends for the Desulfurization of Hot Metal and Steel, that are 100% melamine-free and which can be transported as non-dangerous goods (Non-ADR).
Metals like Magnesium are pyrophoric, they can be spontaneously combustible and are highly flammable. Due to these specific properties, special requirements for the transportation, handling and storage of Magnesium are required.
ALMAMET has developed Magnesium-based granules that ensure a safe handling, transport and storage. As a consequence, all these can be transported as non-ADR (non-dangerous goods) by truck.
The developed Magnesium-based reagents with our brand new URSAFE® coating (patent pending) provide the same high-quality aspects ALMAMET is well known for. Our developed additives show excellent results as passivation against spontaneous combustion and flammability. In the process, the additives decompose in endothermic reactions at a temperature of 200°C.
There have also been melamine-containing agents so far, although melamine has now proven to be a carcinogenic substance. In consequence, many countries have introduced guidelines on the use of melamine and its use as a flame retardant must also be questioned – our URSAFE® coating is completely melamine-free.
Image studies by independent laboratories show a uniform distribution and coating on our MG 95 L granule with the URSAFE® coating. Independent laboratory tests according UN-MTC (United Nations – Material Test Certificate) confirm:
ALMAMET Blends MG 97, MG 95 L, MG 90 L
This meets the requirements for non-hazardous goods transport (Non-ADR).
