Abstract

Abstract Methylol phosphines, methylol phosphines in combination with amine or amido compounds or water soluble adducts of these methylol phosphines and amides or amines when mixed and reacted with mono, di or polyisocyanates wherein the isocyanate groups are attached to carbon atoms are particularly valuable for the preparation of thermosetting flame resistant polymers. The polymers which are produced are crosslinked phosphorus and nitrogen containing polymers in which the reoccurring structure units each contain a phosphorus atom, that is a component of the radical tris(methylene)-phosphine (-CH2)3P and is linked to at least one isocyanate radical by connecting urethane structure. The polymer forming solutions are also valuable for the preparation of flame-, glow-, wrinkle- and shrink-resistant textiles, said textiles being produced by impregnating fabrics with these solutions and causing reaction and polymer formation by application of heat.
