SUMMARY REPORT FOR POLYBROMINATED FLAME RETARDANTS

Local: Decabromodiphenyl Oxide, belongs to a family of polybrominated flame retardant, is used polyolefins, styrenics, polyamides and thermoplastic polyester resins. Its end applications include elastomers, wire & cable, textile coatings, electrical & electronic equipments, automotive parts, construction materials, textile backcoatings and textile blends.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF FLAME RETARDANT AGENT: Flame Retardants are substances that can be chemically inserted into the polymer molecule or be phisically blended in polymers after polymerization to suppress, reduce, delay or modify the propagation of a flame through a plastic materials. There are several classes of flame retardants Halogenated Hydrocarbons (Chlorine and Bromine containing compounds and reactive flame retardants), Inorganic flame retardants ( Boron compounds, Antimony oxides, Aluminium Hydroxide, molybdenum compounds, zinc and magnesium oxides ), Phosphorous containing compounds (Organic phosphate esters, phosphates, halogenated phosphorus compounds and inorganic phosphorus containing salts).
