This chemical is primarily used as a flame retardant in various materials, particularly in plastics and textiles. Its ability to inhibit or suppress combustion makes it valuable in enhancing the fire safety of products such as electronic components, automotive parts, and construction materials. It is often incorporated into polymer matrices to improve their resistance to ignition and reduce the spread of flames. Additionally, it is utilized in coatings and adhesives where fire resistance is a critical requirement. Its effectiveness in high-temperature environments makes it suitable for applications in industries where thermal stability and fire safety are paramount.
