    This document discusses various flame retardant chemicals used in polyurethane foam and other plastics. It notes that TCPP, TDCP, and TCEP which are chlorinated flame retardants used in Europe have been shown to pose carcinogenic risks. It also discusses bans on pentaBDE and the detection of various flame retardants including TDCPP, Firemaster550, PBDEs, and two new chlorinated OPFRs in samples of baby products. The document also mentions that Great Lakes Chemical was a manufacturer of PBDEs and that California flammability standards which likely affect flame retardant use in baby products nationwide require upholstered furniture and some baby items to withstand exposure to an open flame for 12

    Flame retardants
    CiLON Pa6 Flame Retardant Compound

    Chlorinated FRS ( TCPP , TDCP , TCEP ) – All were shown to have carcinogenic risk in babies. TDCP
    and TCPP used in Europe in flexible PUR foam in child care articles and residential upholstered
    furniture. TCEP is not used but found in some imported articles
    Penta BDE is banned in 2004

    Baby products containing polyurethane foam must meet California state furniture flammability
    standards, which likely affects the use of flame retardants in baby products throughout the U.S.

    Foam samples collected from 101 commonly used baby products were analyzed.
    1. tris(1,3-dichloroisopropyl) phosphate (TDCPP; detection frequency 36%), Most common

    2. Firemaster550 commercial mixture (detection frequency 17%).

    3. PBDE congeners commonly associated with PentaBDE, suggesting products with PentaBDE are still
    in-use.

    4. Two chlorinated organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) not previously documented in the
    environment were also identified, one of which is commercially sold as V6 (detection frequency
    15%) and contains tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) as an impurity

    Great Lakes Chemical (Chemtura) was US manufacturer for PBDEs (Polybrominated diphenyl ethers)

    In US for upholstery furniture sold in California require compliance to TB117 which requires
    withstanding exposure to a small open flame for 12 s . Similar compliance for some baby furniture
    and toys.
