"Br" is expected to take the lead through REACH

The "Br family" is expected to be the first to pass REACH. At the just-closed meeting of the flame-retardant industry, Dr. Han Songqing, representative of the International Bromoscience and Environment Forum, revealed that the brominated flame retardant family is expected to be "better beneficiary" and the first flame retardant to pass the REACH program. This is because the EU has conducted a comprehensive safety assessment of brominated flame retardants for more than a decade and accumulated a large amount of data. The safety of most brominated flame retardants has been affirmed by international authoritative organizations and the risk assessment data are sufficient. Bromine Flame retardants are one of the most important parts of flame retardants used in textiles, home appliances, mobile phones and industrial products. The most widely used flame retardants are decabromodiphenyl ether and tetrabromobisphenol A. They have With long history of use, high performance/price ratio, and wide application range, it has also become the most comprehensive type of flame retardant with the most comprehensive application data due to numerous criticisms. Pentabromodiphenyl ether and octabromodiphenyl ether were found to be potentially hazardous to the environment and health and were therefore banned.
There is no sufficient data to show that other brominated flame retardants are harmful to the environment and health, and there is no data showing that other flame retardants are safer and more reliable than bromine flame retardants. The risk assessment procedure for brominated flame retardants in the European Union is very strict, and the results of the assessment have now become the basis for EU authorities to formulate policies. Dr. Han Songqing believes that in fact, the use of bromine flame retardants can take into account safety, environmental protection and health. Therefore, the government's forced substitution will bring about risks of safety, environment, market and law. The forced substitution may be more than worth the loss. In particular, it is worth mentioning that the stability of brominated flame retardants during recycling is very good, and it has been experimentally confirmed that the use of brominated flame retardants (such as decabromodiphenyl ether) in plastics, after several mechanical recycling, flame retardant Basically, the agent still maintains its original physical properties, which is very favorable for recycling economy and environmental protection. If you simply determine chemical properties based on a certain element contained in a compound, it is obviously neither scientific nor serious. The EU Rolls Directive prohibits the use of PBDE, but DecaBDE has passed the EU's 10-year risk assessment and was waived in October 2005. At present, the risk assessment of tetrabromobisphenol A in the EU has been fully completed, and the conclusion is that there is no harm to human health.
It is worth mentioning that in a study released by the Swedish National Laboratory in June 2006, the benefits of the use of brominated flame retardants were highlighted. The report specifically proposed the use of decabromodiphenyl ether to the European Union. Saved 5-10 billion euros in costs, mainly reduced medical costs and property losses. IPC, the authority of the printed circuit board industry, also clarified the misunderstanding of halogen-free. In its white paper released in August last year, it was believed that halogens are ubiquitous. There is no so-called halogen-free in the world, and only halogen is low. Because the printed circuit board industry is rather special, in addition to flame retardants using tetrabromobisphenol A as an epoxy resin, other materials such as ink will inevitably use halogen-containing materials, so the printed circuit board industry It is impossible to achieve halogen-free. "Halogen-free" is just a marketing term. In addition, for several decades in the use of halogens in electronic and electrical products, no cases have been shown to cause illness or death. Contrary to this, casualties caused by products that are not flame-retardant are well known. The IPC stated its point of view - "IPC does not support any action to reduce halogen flame retardants or use special alternatives unless there is new evidence that the polymer's halogen flame retardants are harmful to the environment and that alternatives are better. ."
In order to provide guarantees for the development of the industry and ensure that all flame retardant products compete in a fair environment, Dr. Han Songqing called for bromine flame retardant manufacturers to unite and scientifically develop bromine flame retardants to meet the ever-increasing fire protection requirements. The role of flame retardants in fire protection is beyond doubt. To date, the global sales of brominated flame retardants remain the highest among all flame retardant types. The Bromoscience and Environment Forum, an international bromine industrial organization established in the 1990s, is made up of an internationally renowned bromine flame retardant manufacturer. Major members include Great Lakes Inc., Albemarle Inc., Israel Chemicals Group, and Japan Dongchao Group. Wait. The Bromine Science and Environment Forum advocated the Action Plan for the Release of Control Resources for the Brominated Flame Retardant Industry, allowing manufacturers to control risks. This program advocates the use of bromine flame retardants in closed environments, which maximizes the benefits of brunting flame retardants and uses the benefits of brominated flame retardants to control their potential market risks. At present, this plan has achieved some results. For example, in the United Kingdom that took the initiative to implement the plan, textiles have been measured three times for total balance. The release of decabromodiphenyl ether from the textile industry in the UK has reduced the environment by 97%, enabling circulation in a closed environment.
