Chlorendic acid is used as an intermediate in synthesis of
unsaturated flame-retardant polyester resins and plasticizers, and
as a finishing flame-retardant treatment for wool.
A major use is in production of fiberglass-reinforced resins for
chemical industry equipment. It can be used to make alkyd resins
for use in special inks and paints. It is used as a hardening agent
in epoxy resins used in manufacture of printed circuit boards. When
reacted with nonhalogenated glycols, it forms halogenated polyols
used as flame retardants in polyurethane foams. It is also used for
production of dibutyl chlorendate and dimethyl chlorendate, which
are used as reactive flame retardants in plastics. In limited
amounts, it is used as an additive in acrylonitrile butadiene
styrene copolymer.
