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.
