High Flame Retardancy: DBDPE is highly effective in preventing or slowing down material ignition by releasing bromine radicals that interfere with the combustion process.
Thermal Stability: Excellent thermal stability makes it suitable for high-temperature applications.
Low Volatility: Minimal volatility during processing reduces emissions and loss during manufacturing.
Chemical Resistance: Strong resistance to chemicals, UV light, and oxidation, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Applications:
Plastics & Polymers: Polyolefins, polystyrene, ABS, and HIPS.
Wires & Cables: Insulation materials for electrical wiring and cabling.
Construction Materials: Insulation boards, roofing materials, and coatings.
Textiles & Fabrics: Back-coatings for upholstery and flame-retardant fabrics.
Electronics & Appliances: Casings and housings for electronics, televisions, and home appliances.
Low Water Solubility: Low risk of leaching into the environment under normal conditions.
Durability: Enhances product longevity and fire resistance without compromising mechanical properties.
Environmental & Safety Considerations:
Regulatory Status: Designed as a safer alternative to Decabromodiphenyl Ether (DecaBDE), DBDPE is widely used due to its reduced environmental persistence and lower bioaccumulation potential.
Handling & Storage: Should be handled with care to avoid dust formation; store in a cool, dry place away from open flames or ignition sources.
