Occurrence and distribution of tetrabromobisphenol A and its derivative in river sediments from Vaal River Catchment, South Africa

Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) compounds have been widely added in a number of products to reduce their flammability. In the present study, the concentrations and distribution of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and its derivatives, i.e. tribromophenol dibromopropyl ether (TBPDBPE), tetrabromobisph...
