Safer alternatives are referenced from current safer chemical databases and software logic, divided into the following three categories:
Based on substructure, the system lists chemicals with risk levels 3 (usable but safer alternatives may be sought), 4 (safer chemicals), or insufficient data (U: not enough data to determine risk level). Information

Real-world substitution cases involving this chemical, from the SUBSPORT+ case story database (English records).
| Case | Role of this chemical | Alternative | Sector | Function | Implementation | Reason for substitution |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A review of different fire retardant technologies from a safe environmental hazard and risk performance. | Substituted | Non-chemical alternative Many of the alternatives mentioned in the report are non-chemical alternatives. Many of the alternatives are also very broad substance groups and are therefore not mentioned as single substances. | Other | Other | Partial capacity | physical hazards ecotoxicity CMR |
