TDCPP Tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) Phosphate Equivalent from China
While TDCPP is dichloro variant, pure tris(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate serves similar flame retardant applications in foam production. Classified specifically under HTS 2919.10.00.00 matching the brominated phosphoric ester description. Used where brominated chemistry preferred over chlorinated alternatives.

Import Tips
• Differentiate from TDCPP (dichloro) via bromine/chlorine ratio testing to secure correct brominated subheading
• Maintain cold chain if required for stability; temperature excursions affect purity classification
• Monitor EU REACH restrictions on brominated flame retardants affecting transshipment routes
