From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dibromo neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether is a brominated version of Neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether. It is an aliphatic organic chemical in the glycidyl ether family.[1] It has the formula C11H18Br2O4 and the CAS registry number of 31452-80-9.[2] The IUPAC name is 2-[[1,3-dibromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-(oxiran-2-ylmethoxy)propoxy]methyl]oxirane.[3]

Uses

[edit]

A key use of the material is reducing the viscosity of epoxy resins. As an epoxy modifier it is classed as a reactive diluent,which may then be formulated into CASE applications: Coatings, Adhesives, Sealants and Elastomers and composite materials.[4] As it is an organobromine compound it is used to improve the Flame retardant properties of materials.[5] Flame retardant coatings[6] including powder coatings maybe produced.[7]

Toxicity

[edit]

There is a trend to try and formulate away from brominated species in general because of the toxicity of the smoke produced when heated.[8]
