Usage

Uses

Used in Flame Retardant Applications:
2,2',3,4,4',5'-Hexabromodiphenyl Ether is used as a flame retardant in various industries to reduce the risk of fire and improve the safety of consumer products. Its flame-retardant properties are attributed to the presence of bromine atoms, which release hydrogen bromide when heated, thereby interrupting the combustion process.
Used in Textile Industry:
In the textile industry, 2,2',3,4,4',5'-Hexabromodiphenyl Ether is used as a flame retardant for fabrics and textiles, such as upholstery, carpets, and curtains. It helps to slow down the spread of fire and provides additional time for occupants to escape in case of a fire.
Used in Plastics and Rubber Industry:
2,2',3,4,4',5'-Hexabromodiphenyl Ether is also used in the plastics and rubber industry to enhance the flame retardancy of these materials. It is commonly incorporated into polymers used in the production of electronic devices, wires, and cables, as well as in automotive and construction applications.
Used in Electronics Industry:
In the electronics industry, 2,2',3,4,4',5'-Hexabromodiphenyl Ether is used as a flame retardant in various components, such as printed circuit boards, connectors, and casings. Its incorporation helps to prevent the ignition of electrical components and reduce the risk of fire hazards.
