Abstract
The Flame Retardants (FRs) are used as additives to reduce the flammability by many industries, and support our activities. However, the FRs have toxic chemicals, and they may pose health harm. Therefore the regulation of the FRs is important matter, but we need to choice the regulatory policy which is less impacts to industrial or living activities as possible as. In this paper, we build the CGE model to clarify the distribution or incidence mechanism of costs and benefits when introducing the regulation of FRs, and evaluate actually them through the numerical simulation.
