Product Information

• Name: 3,3'-Dichlorobisphenol A
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3,3'-Dichlorobisphenol A is a chlorine-containing organic compound that is used in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics. It has been found to be genotoxic and carcinogenic in animals. 3,3'-Dichlorobisphenol A is also toxic to aquatic organisms and may persist for long periods in the environment. 3,3'-Dichlorobisphenol A enters wastewater when it is released during the production of polycarbonate plastics or as a byproduct of other chlorination reactions. The most common method for removing 3,3'-dichlorobisphenol A from wastewater is to use UV irradiation followed by chlorine gas treatment. This process can lead to the formation of additional chlorinated compounds that are more toxic than 3,3'-dichlorobisphenol A.
