Tetrabromophthalic Anhydride is a brominated flame retardant used as additives in plastics to decrease the rate of combustion of these materials, leading to greater consumer safety.
ChEBI: Tetrabromophthalic anhydride is a cyclic dicarboxylic anhydride and a member of 2-benzofurans.
Pale yellow crystalline solid.
Insoluble in water. Sensitive to moisture .

Low toxicity by ingestion, inhalation, and
skin contact. A mild eye irritant.
