GUANYLUREA ALCOHOL PHOSPHATES AND THEIR USE AS REACTANTS IN POLYURETHANE AND EPOXY RESIN APPLICATIONS

摘要

Guanylurea alcohol phosphate salts are disclosed. Flame retardant thermoplastic and thermoset polymers can be made by incorporating said guanylurea alcohol phosphate salts into polymers and these polymers have improved properties over similar thermoplastic or thermoset polymers where guanylurea phosphate salts are added as flame retardant dispersions to said polymer. Flame retardant polyurethane foams where the guanylurea alcohol phosphate salts have been incorporated into the polyurethane are a particularly preferred embodiment.
