Abstract
Abstract Self-extinguishing polymer compositions are prepared by the intimate admixture of an ordinarily flammable polymer substrate, which may be in the form of an aqueous solution, suspension or most preferably, an emulsion, with an aqueous emulsion or latex of a copolymer of a halogen containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer, such as a vinyl halide, and a phosphorus containing vinyl monomer, particularly a bis (hydrocarbyl) vinylphosphonate. The thus modified polymers display a high degree of flame retardance and are useful in a variety of applications including, for example, as coatings, adhesives, binders, impregnants, laminants and paint bases.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
An aqueous emulsion copolymer consisting of: (1) from about 1 to 90%, by weight, of at least one bis(hydrocarbyl) vinylphosphonate having the structure: ##EQU4## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, cyano, aryl, C 1 -C 18 alkyl and ##EQU5## wherein R and R' are hydrocarbyl and substituted hydrocarbyl groups having non-interfering substitutents, said hydrocarbyl and said substituted hydrocarbyl groups containing up to about 18 carbon atoms inclusive with the proviso that R and R' can be the same, different, or conjoint and (2) the balance being at least one halogen containing, ethylenically unsaturated compound selected from the group consisting of the vinyl halides and the vinylidene halides.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
An aqueous emulsion copolymer consisting of: (1) from about 1 to 90%, by weight, of at least one bis(hydrocarbyl) vinylphosphonate having the structure: ##EQU4## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, cyano, aryl, C 1 -C 18 alkyl and ##EQU5## wherein R and R' are hydrocarbyl and substituted hydrocarbyl groups having non-interfering substitutents, said hydrocarbyl and said substituted hydrocarbyl groups containing up to about 18 carbon atoms inclusive with the proviso that R and R' can be the same, different, or conjoint and (2) the balance being at least one halogen containing, ethylenically unsaturated compound selected from the group consisting of the vinyl halides and the vinylidene halides.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
A copolymer as claimed in claim 1 wherein the vinyl halide is selected from the group consisting of vinyl chloride, vinyl fluoride and vinyl bromide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
14 words
A copolymer as claimed in claim 1 wherein the vinyl halide is vinyl chloride.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
A copolymer as claimed in claim 1 wherein said copolymer contains about 40% to 70% of said bis(hydrocarbyl) vinylphosphonate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
12 words
A copolymer as claimed in claim 4 wherein said bis(hydrocarbyl)vinylphosphonate is bis(beta-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
12 words
A copolymer as claimed in claim 1 wherein said bis(hydrocarbyl)vinylphosphonate is bis(beta-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
18 words
A copolymer as claimed in claim 1 comprising about 40-70% of bis(beta-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate with the remainder being vinyl chloride.
