Description

Pentabromobenzyl Acrylate is a highly functionalized brominated acrylate monomer, a key intermediate for imparting flame retardancy to polymeric materials. Its primary value lies in its ability to act as a reactive flame retardant, becoming chemically bonded into a polymer matrix to provide durable, non-leaching fire protection. This product is essential for manufacturers in the plastics, coatings, adhesives, and textile industries seeking to enhance the fire safety of their end products while maintaining material integrity.

Application

• Reactive Flame Retardant for Polymers: Copolymerized into acrylic resins, polyesters, epoxy resins, and polyurethanes to provide built-in, permanent flame retardancy.
• Flame-Retardant Coatings and Adhesives: Used in the synthesis of specialty acrylic oligomers for intumescent paints, protective coatings, and high-performance adhesives.
• Textile Finishing Agent: Imparts flame-retardant properties to synthetic and natural fiber fabrics through chemical grafting or finishing processes.
• Electronic Encapsulants and Potting Compounds: Incorporated into resins used to protect sensitive electronic components from fire risks.
• Crosslinking Agent: Utilized in radiation-curable (UV/EB) systems due to its acrylate functionality, adding flame retardancy to the cured network.
• Intermediate for Specialty Chemicals: Serves as a building block for synthesizing more complex brominated flame retardants and functional additives.

Quality Control

Our Pentabromobenzyl Acrylate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, identity, and performance. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, bromine content, and impurity profiles. Our quality commitment ensures the material meets the stringent requirements for use in flame-retardant formulations and specialty polymer synthesis.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its acrylate functionality and light-sensitive nature, prolonged exposure to light or elevated temperatures should be avoided to maintain product stability.
