几十年来,溴化阻燃剂(BFR)已被常规添加到消费品中,成功地减少了与火灾有关的伤害和财产损失。最近,由于环境和人类生物群中出现了几类溴化阻燃剂,人们对这类新出现的化学品的关注有所增加。由于溴化阻燃剂的广泛生产和使用;有强有力的证据表明,对环境、野生动物和人类的污染日益严重;以及对潜在影响的了解有限,因此更有必要查明与使用溴化阻燃剂有关的新出现的问题。在本文中,我们简要回顾了与四溴双酚A、六溴环十二烷和三种多溴二苯醚商用混合物的使用有关的科学问题,并讨论了数据缺口。总体而言,毒理学数据库非常有限;目前的文献不完整,而且往往相互矛盾。然而,现有数据对某些类别的溴化阻燃剂的使用表示关切。
Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) have routinely been added to consumer products for several decades in a successful effort to reduce fire-related injury and property damage. Recently, concern for this emerging class of chemicals has risen because of the occurrence of several classes of BFRs in the environment and in human biota. The widespread production and use of BFRs; strong evidence of increasing contamination of the environment, wildlife, and people; and limited knowledge of potential effects heighten the importance of identifying emerging issues associated with the use of BFRs. In this article, we briefly review scientific issues associated with the use of tetrabromobisphenol A, hexabromocyclododecane, and three commercial mixtures of polybrominated diphenyl ethers and discuss data gaps. Overall, the toxicology database is very limited; the current literature is incomplete and often conflicting. Available data, however, raise concern over the use of certain classes of brominated flame retardants.
