Abstract: A fire retarding polypropylene composition comprising a copolymer of polypropylene in which ethylene/propylene rubber has been grafted onto the polypropylene chains, and at least about 50% by weight but not greater than 60% by weight of a magnesium hydroxide coated with an anionic surface active agent, the magnesium hydroxide having (i) a strain in the <101> direction of not more than 3.0×10−3, (ii) a crystallite size in the <101> direction of more than 800Å, and (iii) a specific surface area, determined by the BET method, of less than 20 mg2/g. The composition may be used in the formation of articles adapted to be used in a clean room, which pass the FMRC standards.
