Abstract

Abstract A fire-retardant composition comprising (a) a halogensubstituted aromatic hydroxy compound and (b) a phosphorus- or antimony-containing compound, for instance, a bromo-phenol and an aromatic phosphate, is especially well suited for incorporation, conveniently in a resin varnish, into laminates. The resulting laminates are particularly useful for electrical applications.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 52 words
A mixture containing as essential ingredients thereof (a) tetrabromo bisphenol A and (b) a compound selected from the group consisting of aliphatic phosphorus-containing compounds, aromatic phosphorus-containing compounds, antimony trioxide, and mixtures thereof, which mixture retains its fire-retardant properties after being heated to a temperature of 150* - 170*C. for about 1 hour.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 52 words
A mixture containing as essential ingredients thereof (a) tetrabromo bisphenol A and (b) a compound selected from the group consisting of aliphatic phosphorus-containing compounds, aromatic phosphorus-containing compounds, antimony trioxide, and mixtures thereof, which mixture retains its fire-retardant properties after being heated to a temperature of 150* - 170*C. for about 1 hour.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
A mixture containing as essential ingredients thereof (a) a compound selected from the group consisting of ortho-bromophenol, para-bromophenol, mixtures of ortho- and para-bromophenol, a dibromophenol, mixtures of a bromophenol and a dibromophenol, tri-bromophenol, pentabromo p-phenyl phenol, bromocresol, and (b) trixylenyl phosphate, which mixture retains its fire-retardant properties after being heated to a temperature of 150* - 170*C. for about 1 hour.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 61 words
A mixture containing as essential ingredients thereof (a) a compound selected from the group consisting of ortho-bromophenol, para-bromophenol, mixtures of ortho- and para-bromophenol, a dibromophenol, mixtures of a bromophenol and a dibromophenol, tri-bromophenol, pentabromo p-phenyl phenol, bromocresol, and (b) trixylenyl phosphate, which mixture retains its fire-retardant properties after being heated to a temperature of 150* - 170*C. for about 1 hour.
