Abstract

Abstract The known compound, 1,2,3,4,9,9-hexachloro-1,4-dihydro-1,4methanonaphthalene-5,8-diol (I) is an excellent flame retardant for ABS resins and polyurethanes, particularly, polyether-based polyurethanes. Compound I also forms novel molecular complexes with weak bases such as pyridine, pyridine HCl, pyridine oxide, dimethylsulfoxide and dimethylformamide, and which are excellent flame retardants for ABS resins. Compound I also exhibits unusual synergistic flame retardant effects in ABS resins and other polymers when used together with certain additives that are not themselves flame retardants.
