There is provided herein a polyolefin composition comprising a polyolefin and a flame retardant effective amount of a solid phosphate ester of the general formula (1): wherein n has an average value of from about 1.0 to about 2.0 and X is a divalent arylene moiety bonded to both of the oxygen atoms of any one of hydroquinone, resorcinol, 4,4′-biphenol, bisphenol S, or bisphenol F, and wherein the phosphate ester is in the absence of halogen. There is also provided a method of making the polyolefin composition. This fire retardant polyolefin composition is particularly useful in polypropylene fiber and films and foams. |
