Pentabromobenzyl acrylate

Description:

Pentabromobenzyl acrylate is a chemical compound characterized by its structure, which includes a benzyl group substituted with five bromine atoms and an acrylate functional group. This compound is typically used as a flame retardant due to the presence of bromine, which is known for its ability to inhibit combustion. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and specific formulation. Pentabromobenzyl acrylate exhibits good thermal stability and can undergo polymerization, making it useful in various applications, including coatings, adhesives, and plastics. Its brominated structure contributes to its effectiveness in reducing flammability in materials. However, like many brominated compounds, it may raise environmental and health concerns, necessitating careful handling and assessment of its safety profile. Overall, pentabromobenzyl acrylate is valued in industries that prioritize fire safety in their products while also requiring consideration of its potential ecological impact.
