What Does CDBF Stand For?

CDBF stands for Chlorinated Dibenzofurans

CDBF, or Chlorinated Dibenzofurans, refers to a group of chemical compounds formed from the chlorination of dibenzofuran. These compounds are of environmental concern due to their persistence, toxicity, and potential to bioaccumulate in living organisms. CDBFs are typically produced as byproducts in various industrial processes, including waste incineration and the manufacturing of certain chemicals. Research into their health effects and environmental impact is ongoing, emphasizing the need for regulatory measures to mitigate their release into ecosystems.
