Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 59 words
A composition comprising a polymer containing as a fire retardant a small but fire retarding amount of a compound of the general formula ##SPC2## wherein each X is independently Br or Cl, each m is independently an integer of 1 to 5, and at least about 45% by weight of the compound is Br, Cl or a mixture thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 59 words
A composition comprising a polymer containing as a fire retardant a small but fire retarding amount of a compound of the general formula ##SPC2## wherein each X is independently Br or Cl, each m is independently an integer of 1 to 5, and at least about 45% by weight of the compound is Br, Cl or a mixture thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 10 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is polystyrene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 11 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is polyethylene terephthalate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the concentration of the compound of claim 1 ranges from about 1 to about 20% by weight based on the weight of the polymer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 30 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the concentration of the compound of claim 1 ranges from about 5 to about 10% by weight based on the weight of the polymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
