Trovidur EC-N Applications & Uses
Trovidur EC-N is commonly selected for electrical insulators, junction boxes, cable ducts, and control-panel components where self-extinguishing properties are critical. It is also used for mechanical guards, mounting plates, jigs, and fixtures in general engineering. In the construction and chemical sectors, it appears in vent ducts, fume-cupboard linings, and tank covers, especially where moderate temperatures and occasional chemical contact are encountered. Other typical applications include sign-making, display stands, and food-industry machine parts that do not require high chemical resistance.
