Decabromodiphenyl ethane (Cat No.:I025712) is a brominated flame retardant widely employed in various industries. It is added to thermoplastics, thermosets, textiles, and coatings to enhance their fire resistance and inhibit the spread of fires. DBDPE acts by releasing bromine radicals when exposed to high temperatures, which interrupt the combustion process and suppress the ignition and propagation of flames. Due to its effectiveness in fire prevention, DBDPE finds extensive use in applications where fire safety is paramount, such as building materials, electronics, and transportation sectors.
