FLAME RETARDANT COATING COMPOSITION FOR TEXTILES AND PROCESS FOR COATING TEXTILE SUBSTRATES

摘要

The present invention relates to metal phosphonates, e.g., aluminum methyl methylphosphonate (AMMP), which can be used as a flame retardant in the formulations for application on a textile substrate. More specifically, the metal phosphonate-containing formulations can be used as flame retardant formulations for application on textile fabrics while substantially maintaining the desired characteristics (aesthetic or textural properties) of the textile. The present invention thus further provides for articles having these metal phosphonate formulations applied thereon, and of processes of applying them onto various textile substrates.
