Triphenyl phosphate

==Description== 
An aromatic phosphate that was commonly used as a flame retardant and plasticizer. Triphenyl phosphate (TPhP) was placed on the EPA Toxic Substance list in 2014 as a compound that exhibits acute and chronic aquatic toxicity. As of 2024 its use has not been restricted. Major commercial uses include paints, coatings, adhesives, plastics, rubber products, textiles, and electronics.
As a flame retardant, TPhP decomposes with heat to form phosphoric acid, then further reacts to form pyrophosphoric acid which acts as a heat transfer blocker. Until the mid-1990s brominated flame retardants (BRFs) were most commonly used. When BFRs were phased out due to environmental concerns, they were replaced by organophosphate flame retardants (OPFR), that are now considered to be the most effective flame retardant. In the production processes, TPhP is physically mixed with materials rather than chemically bonded. Thus, it can migrate out of the material via volatilization, leaching, abrasion or dissolution. 
As a non-volatile plasticizer, triphenyl phosphate increases the diffusion coefficients of the solvents thereby decreasing drying times for coatings.
== Synonyms and Related Terms ==
TPhP; TPP
==Applications== 
* Flame retardant in electronic equipment, building materials, furniture, hydraulic fluids and plastics
* Plasticizer often used in glues, varnishes, nail polishes, and casting resins
==Risks== 
* Low toxicity by dermal and oral contact but some studies have linked TPhP to reproductive and developmental toxicity, neurotoxicity, metabolic disruption, and endocrine effects.
* Considered hazardous waste; Do not dispose via drains.
* Widely detected in sediment, soil, indoor dust, and air due to its extensive use.
* Biodegrades in water but is considered toxic to aquatic organisms potentially producing long-term adverse effects.
