Photodegradation of 1,3,5-Tris-(2,3-dibromopropyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione and decabromodiphenyl ethane flame retardants: Kinetics, Main products, and environmental implications

Photodegradation has been demonstrated as one of the important environmental factors affecting the fate of contaminants such as brominated flame retardants (BFRs). However, a number of emerging BFRs, particularly those with high bromine substitution, have rarely been investigated for their photodegradation kinetics. Our study evaluated photodegradation of two highly brominated FRs, 1,3,5-tris-(2,3-dibromopropyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione...
