Abstract:
Textile materials are rendered flame retardant by applying a phosphorus-containing condensation product, a nitrogen-phosphorus-containing condensation product and an aminoplast precondensate to the textile material, and fixing them on the textile material.
Abstract:
Process for producing a water-soluble phosphorus-containing condensation product having a molar ratio P--CH.sub.2 --P linkage/P--CH.sub.2 OCH.sub.2 --P linkage of 0.8-4.0 by heating a tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)phosphonium compound under reduced pressure and acid conditions to condense it by dehydration and deformaldehydation reaction. This condensation product can be used for rendering textile articles flame retardant.
