Book Chapter Description

The bulk of the environmental science on flame retardants (FRs) has been on the brominated compounds (BFRs). However, there are a number of environmentally relevant classes of FRs falling outside the scope of BFRs. These FRs include chlorinated paraffins (CPs), the dechloranes and related series of compounds and phosphorus FRs (PFRs). The non-brominated flame retardants falling within the classifications of PFRs, CPs and the dechlorane series of compounds can require complex sample preparation schemes and analytical procedures using highly sensitive and selective state-of-the-art instrumentation to achieve stringent data quality objectives. Analytical procedures including extraction, cleanup and instrumental analysis are reviewed. Emphasis has been placed on developments since the most recent comprehensive reviews of analytical techniques for these three compound classes.
