Cresol diphenyl phosphate, also known as CDPP, is an organophosphate flame retardant. It consists of a cresol group (methylphenol) bonded to two phenyl groups, connected to a phosphate functional group. CDPP is widely used in various materials such as plastics, textiles, and foam products to reduce flammability. Its flame-retardant properties arise from its ability to inhibit combustion reactions. However, concerns about its potential toxicity and environmental persistence have led to scrutiny and efforts to find safer alternatives in flame retardant applications.
