Melamine polyphosphate decomposes endothermically above 350ºC, acting as a heat sink to cool the polymer.
The released phosphoric acid further reacts with the polymer to form a char and inhibit the release of free radical gasses into the oxygen phase.
Simultaneously, nitrogen species released from the degradation of melamine intumesces the char to further protect the polymer.
Melamine polyphosphate based halogen free flame retardants are primarily used for glass fiber reinforced polyamide and polyester (e.g. PBT) and can be used as a synergist in many other applications and polymers.

Melamine polyphosphate is a coordination compound that has been used as an antimicrobial agent and polymer retardant.
It has been shown to have a Langmuir adsorption isotherm, which is indicative of the ability to form a monolayer on the surface of water droplets.
Melamine polyphosphate also has an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) that can be used for determining the rate constant of its reaction with water vapor.
The rate constants are determined by measuring the change in impedance over time and plotting it against frequency.
This analytical method is used for determining the concentration and stability of melamine polyphosphate in solution and can be applied to other similar compounds.
Melamine phosphate uses and applications include: Flame retardant for plastics, polyolefins, polyester, rubbers, pigmented coatings, latex intumescent coating formulations, paper, textiles; catalyst in intumescent systems; intumescent paintmastic ingredient
