Tetrabromobisphenol A and decabromodiphenyl ethane for epoxy laminates, ABS, HIPS, and engineering thermoplastics.
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is the highest-volume brominated flame retardant globally by production tonnage. Flamisol supplies TBBPA and reactive brominated intermediates for epoxy laminate, printed circuit board, ABS, HIPS, and specialty polymer applications under the FL-BR product family.
CAS 79-94-7. The most widely used brominated FR globally. Reactive monomer that copolymerizes into epoxy resin systems during cure, providing permanent bromine incorporation without migration. Used as both a reactive FR in epoxy laminates (FR-4 PCB substrates) and an additive FR in ABS, HIPS, and PBT thermoplastics.
