Bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate

Description:
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate (CAS 26040-51-7) is a brominated flame retardant commonly used in various polymer applications to enhance fire resistance. This compound is characterized by its high molecular weight and the presence of multiple bromine atoms, which contribute to its effectiveness as a flame retardant by promoting char formation and reducing flammability. It is typically a viscous liquid or solid at room temperature, with low volatility, making it suitable for incorporation into plastics and other materials. The substance is relatively stable under normal conditions but may undergo degradation when exposed to extreme heat or UV light. Its environmental persistence raises concerns regarding bioaccumulation and potential toxicity to aquatic organisms. Regulatory scrutiny has increased due to its brominated nature, prompting investigations into safer alternatives. Overall, Bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate serves a critical role in enhancing fire safety in consumer products, but its environmental impact necessitates careful management and assessment.
