Brominated Polystyrene (BPS) is a bromine-based, high molecular weight organic compound primarily used as a flame retardant. Structurally, it is produced by brominating polystyrene under controlled conditions, resulting in a compound with a high bromine content (typically around 68ā70%). As a reactive or additive flame retardant, BPS is halogen-rich but free from Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs) and Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBBs), making it a more environmentally friendly option that complies with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive. It exhibits excellent thermal stability, low volatility, and high compatibility with engineering thermoplastics, such as PA6, PA66, PBT, and PET. These properties enable BPS to retain flame retardancy performance even during high-temperature processing, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications like electronics, automotive parts, and appliances.
In recent years, Brominated Polystyrene has experienced rapid growth in demand due to the rising need for halogen-based yet RoHS-compliant flame retardants. Its adoption is particularly strong in the electronics and automotive industries, where materials must meet strict fire safety standards without sacrificing mechanical integrity or environmental compliance. The growing replacement of PBDEs and decaBDE with safer alternatives is driving BPS usage, as it offers high flame retardancy while maintaining excellent thermal and UV stability. Additionally, as global manufacturers seek to enhance the flame-retardant properties of polyamides and polyesters in critical components, BPS continues to emerge as a reliable and effective solution.
The global BPS market is currently led by major players such as Albemarle, Lanxess, and Shandong Brother, who collectively account for around 72% of market share. North America dominates production with approximately 52% of the global output, followed by China at 25% and Europe at 16%. In terms of consumption, North America remains the largest market with a 28% share, trailed closely by Europe (26%) and China (23%). This geographic distribution reflects both the maturity of the regulatory framework in these regions and their respective levels of industrialization. With growing fire safety regulations, increasing demand for engineering plastics, and heightened environmental awareness, the BPS market is expected to maintain steady growth in the coming years.
