Risk Assessment of Phosphorous Flame Retardants

Gradient provided toxicological, database, and risk analysis support for product development of phosphorus-based flame retardant chemicals. We created a database of toxicity and physicochemical information on existing products and related organophosphorus compounds. These analyses contributed to a program of developing flame retardant chemicals with low potential for health and environmental impact.
