Investigating the photolytic degradation of novel monomeric and polymeric brominated flame retardants: analytical characterization, acute ecotoxicological effects and influence of sample storage

Abstract Background The environmental degradation of novel brominated flame retardants (BFRs) is largely unknown. Here, the photolytic degradation of the two novel BFRs, PolymericFR and Tetrabromobisphenol A-bis (2,3-dibrom-2-methyl-propyl) ether (TBBPA-BDBMPE), has been investigated by studying the...
