    Product Description:
    Diphenyl phosphate is an organophosphorus compound with the chemical formula (C6H5O)2PO(OH). It is a colorless to pale yellow solid or liquid, commonly used as a flame retardant and plasticizer. Its primary industrial application is as a reactive flame retardant and plasticizer in the production of polymers, particularly in epoxy resins and polycarbonates. It functions as a flame retardant by promoting char formation and releasing phosphorus-containing radicals that scavenge combustion-propagating radicals in the gas phase. It is also utilized as an intermediate in the synthesis of other phosphate esters and organophosphorus compounds. As a monomer or additive, it contributes to improving the fire resistance and flexibility of various polymeric materials. It is important to handle it with care due to its potential irritant properties.
