Analytical And Environmental Aspects of The Flame Retardant Tetra Bromo Bis Phenol A And Its Derivatives
Tetra Bromo Bis Phenol A or TBBPA is commonly used as a flame retardant and its derivatives. This flame retardant is covalently bound to Polycarbonate and Epoxy resins. The industrial production procedure entails brominating bisphenol-A with bromine while a solvent, like a halocarbon or methanol, is present. The Analytical and Environmental Aspects of Tetra Bromo Bis Phenol A Except in a few instances, TBBPA has not been considered a target compound itself but rather merely as a possible extra analyte. TBBPA is typically measured with phenolic organic compounds such as HBCD using LC-MS techniques. 1. TBBPA's physicochemical characteristics Due to its distinct physicochemical characteristics , specific analytical techniques are needed to determine TBBPA. A sizable portion of the TBBPA is prevalent in its dissolved state in neutral environments. Maintaining a neutral environment while using polar solvent results in losses during the cleaning process. It is important to take precauti...
