New Brominated Flame Retardant Tris (2,3-dibromopropyl) isocyanurate from Wellington Laboratories

Wellington Laboratories Logo

 

The treatment of household products and textiles with halogenated flame retardnats has been carried out for many decades. The reduced flammability of these modified materials is a desirable attribute, however the effects of these additives on ecosystems and human health have not been established. Many of these compounds are not chemically bound to the matrix to which they are applied so their migration into the surrounding environment is likely. Unfortunately, the properties that make these compounds good candidates for flame retardancy apllications also make them persistent in the environment.

Tris (2,3-dibromopropyl) isocyanuate (T23BPIC) is a heterocyclic brominated flame retardant that is resistant to photodegradation and is thermally stable. It has been used to treat a wide variety of industrial polymers including polyurethane for agricultural use, polyvinyl chloride, polyesters, synthetic rubber, and many others. It has been shown to absorb strongly to organic material and has characteristics that may promote bioaccumulation in certain species. To ais laboratories in the detection of this compound in the environment and in biota, Wellington Laboratories has prepared a reference standard of T23BPIC.

Perfluorinated Compounds (PFCs)

Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are an emerging class of environmental contaminants. Their unique properties create a host of analytical challenges that require the use of native and mass-labelled standards for the generation of accurate data. The most notable PFCs include PFOS (perfluorooctanesulfonate) and PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) and Wellington currently offers multiple mass-labelled standards for these compounds to meet your analytical needs. In fact, Wellington offers a large selection of native and mass-labelled per- and poly-fluorinated compounds, including:

Perfluoroalkylcarboxylic Acids (PFCAs)
Perfluoroalkylsulfonates (PFASs)
Perfluorooctanesulfonamides (FOSAs)
Perfluorooctanesulfonamidoethanols (FOSEs)
Perfluorooctanesulfonamidoacetic acids (FOSAAs)
Telomer Alcohols (FTOHs)
Telomer Acids (FTAs)
Telomer Sulfonates (FTSs)
Perfluoroalkylphosphonic acids (PFAPAs)
Perfluoroalkylphosphinic acids (PFPi’s)

Wellington Reporter Mass-Labelled anti-Dechlorane Plus Ma-DP - August 27, 2018

Dechlorane Plus® (DP) is a current use additive polychlorinated flame retardant with a variety of applications including electronic cables and wiring, and plastic building materials.  Due to rising concerns regarding the presence of DP, and its related compounds, in environmental samples, Wellington Laboratories has expanded their DP product line to include a mass-labelled anti-DP certified reference standard which will aid in the analysis of this group of compounds.

Perfluorinated Compounds (PFCs) Certified Reference Standards

Wellington Laboratories started to synthesize perfluorinated compounds in 2004 and since then has regularly added new native and mass-labelled standards to their inventory.   In the current Wellington Laboratories catalogue, pages 141 - 159 yiou will find individual standards of the following groups of compounds including, in most cases, mass-labelled analogues as well as some useful soultions/mixtures:

PFC-C-CVS Calibration Set and Support Solutions

Perfluoroalkanesulfonates (PFASs)

Perfluoroalkylcarboxylic acide (PFCAs)

Perfluorooctanesulfonamides (FOSAs)

Perfluorooctanesulfonamidoethanols (FOSEs)

Perfluorooctanesulfonamidoacetic (FOSAAs)

Fluorinated Telomer Alcohols (FTOHs)

Fluorinated Telomer Acids (FTAs)

Unsaturanted Telomer Acids (FTUAs)

Perfluoroalkylphosphonic Acids (PFAPAs)

Perfluoroalkylphosphonic Acids (X:XPFPi)

Polyfluorinated Phosphate Esters (PAPs and SAmPAPs)

Fluorinated Telomer Acrylates and Acetates (FTAcrs and FTOAcs)

 

PFCs are still emerging environmental contaminents and each of the groups of compounds listed above pose unique analytical challenges.  In addition, the individual isomers, such as the branched PFOA and PFOS isomers, are being found to have different toxicokinetic and ecokinetic properties.  Thus Weliington Laboratories' inventory  of PFCs will continue to grow, please visit Wellington's website www.well-labs.com for announcements of new products.

Scientists from Wellington Laboratories attend conferences and workshops on a regular basis. We believe that staying up-to-date with emerging environmental contaminants and global regulations allows us to offer the most relevant reference standards to our customers.

Attending conferences also allows us to share some of the research that is conducted at our facility in Guelph through poster and oral presentations. A few examples of posters presented by Wellington are provided below for your review.
