Tetrabromobisphenol A bis(2-hydroxyethyl) ether

Description:
Tetrabromobisphenol A bis(2-hydroxyethyl) ether, commonly referred to as TBBPA bis(2-HE), is a brominated flame retardant that is derived from tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA). This compound is characterized by its high bromine content, which enhances its flame-retardant properties, making it effective in various polymer applications, particularly in electronics and textiles. TBBPA bis(2-HE) is typically a viscous liquid or solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Its chemical structure features two hydroxyethyl ether groups, which contribute to its reactivity and compatibility with different materials. TBBPA bis(2-HE) is used to improve the thermal stability and fire resistance of polymers, but it has raised environmental and health concerns due to its potential toxicity and persistence in the environment. Regulatory scrutiny has increased regarding its use, prompting research into safer alternatives. Overall, TBBPA bis(2-HE) exemplifies the balance between functional performance in materials and the need for environmental safety.
