Phenol, 2,4(or 2,6)-dibromo-, homopolymer

Description:

Phenol, 2,4(or 2,6)-dibromo-, homopolymer, with CAS number 69882-11-7, is a synthetic polymer derived from the polymerization of dibromophenol monomers. This compound exhibits several notable characteristics. It is typically a solid at room temperature and may appear as a white to light yellow powder or granules. The presence of bromine atoms in its structure enhances its flame retardant properties, making it useful in applications requiring thermal stability. The polymer is generally insoluble in water but may dissolve in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. Its chemical stability is significant, although it can undergo degradation under extreme conditions, such as high temperatures or strong oxidizing agents. Additionally, the polymer's mechanical properties can vary based on its molecular weight and degree of bromination, influencing its applications in various fields, including plastics and coatings. Safety considerations are essential when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, necessitating appropriate protective measures.
