What Is Ammonium Polyphosphate (APP-II)?
Ammonium polyphosphate phase II is a long-chain inorganic phosphate salt used as the acid source in selected intumescent flame-retardant systems. This APP-II powder is a low-water-solubility polymeric grade; it differs from soluble liquid ammonium phosphate fertilizers and from shorter-chain grades.
The 2026 supply limits include phosphorus ≥31.0%, nitrogen ≥14.0%, moisture ≤0.25% and pH 5.5–7.5 in a 10% suspension. Water solubility ≤0.5 g/100 mL, average particle size ≤20 µm and viscosity ≤50 mPa·s in a 10% suspension support practical comparisons of dispersion and handling.
In intumescent development, assess the acid source with the carbon source, binder and gas-generating components as a complete package. Coatings require evaluation of viscosity, dispersion, adhesion, film ageing and expansion after heating. Fire performance belongs to the tested final system.
For polyolefins, thermosets, textile and cable systems, match the phase-II grade to processing conditions, water exposure and mechanical requirements. Retain the suspension basis when comparing test data and protect opened powder bags from moisture.
