Decabromodiphenyl oxide CAS#1163-19-5
Excellent Flame Retardancy：DBDPO is widely used in plastics, textiles, and electronics for its superior fire-resistant performance.
High Thermal and Chemical Stability：It exhibits non-flammable and non-reactive behavior under normal conditions, ensuring safety in various applications.
Low Water Solubility：Its limited solubility in water reduces the risk of leaching, making it environmentally more stable in aqueous settings.
Versatile Industrial Use：Suitable for large-scale manufacturing across multiple sectors, with manageable health risk under proper handling.
DBDPO (Decabromodiphenyl Oxide) is a white to off-white powder with a molecular weight of 959.9 g/mol. It is commonly used as a flame retardant in various applications such as plastics, textiles, and electronics due to its excellent fire-resistant properties. In terms of hazard identification, based on the NFPA-704 M Rating System, it is classified as Health 2, Flammability 0, and Reactivity 0, indicating it presents a moderate health hazard, but is not flammable or reactive under typical conditions. DBDPO is only slightly soluble in water, making it less likely to leach out in aqueous environments. However, proper handling is necessary to avoid health risks, especially in large-scale industrial settings.
