DESCRIPTION OF BISPHENOL-A
BISPHENOL-A (BPA) is produced through an acid-catalyzed condensation reaction  of phenol with acetone. BISPHENOL-A (BPA) growth prospects remain bright,  based on the high growth expected for CD's during the next few years and the  emergence of new markets, such as polycarbonates for auto-glazing, that could  develop after the turn of the century. Epoxies are projected to grow at a more  modest 3 to 4 percent annual rate, based on continued wide acceptance in  adhesives, powder coatings, and electrical and electronic applications. Bis-A used in flame retardants is forecast to grow 4 to 5 percent annually through the early years of the new century. In the environmental area, recent industry-sponsored  research has found no evidence of biological effects from low-dose exposures to  BPA.
