Bisphenol A diphenyl phosphate is a halogen-free flame retardant used in plastics. It is used in polymer blends of engineering plastics, such as PPO/HIPS and PC/ABS, which are commonly used to make casing for electrical items like TVs, computers and home appliances.
It is formed by the transesterification of bisphenol A with triphenyl phosphate. The commercial grade material can contain oligomers (CAS: 181028âÂÂ79âÂÂ5)
