  • Patent number: 4111701
    Abstract: Flame-retarded regenerated cellulose filaments and filamentary articles having dispersed therein polymeric phosphazenes with P-O-P oxygen linkages that are prepared through the condensation of alkyl esters of phosphorus acids with acid halides of phosphorus acids with elimination of alkyl halides; and method for their preparation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 1, 1976
    Date of Patent: September 5, 1978
    Assignee: Avtex Fibers Inc.
    Inventors: Borivoj Richard Franko-Filipasic, Edward F. Orwoll, Vithal C. Patel
  • Patent number: 4040843
    Abstract: Regenerated cellulose filaments containing a flame-retardant amount of liquid oligomeric compounds, prepared by heating together liquid polyphosphonitrilic esters with phosphoric anhydride, and method for preparing same.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 9, 1976
    Date of Patent: August 9, 1977
    Assignee: FMC Corporation
    Inventors: Borivoj Richard Franko-Filipasic, John Francis Start
  • Patent number: 3994996
    Abstract: A new class of polymeric phosphazenes with P--O--P oxygen linkages useful in rendering rayon flame retardant are prepared through the condensation of alkyl esters of phosphorus acids with acid halides of phosphorus acids with elimination of alkyl halides.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 5, 1974
    Date of Patent: November 30, 1976
    Assignee: FMC Corporation
    Inventors: Borivoj Richard Franko-Filipasic, Edward F. Orwoll, Vithal C. Patel
  • Patent number: 3990900
    Abstract: A novel process consisting of reacting a phosphonitrilic chloride with an alcohol or alkoxide to 12 carbon atoms to produce a partially esterified phosphonitrilic chloride, removing impurities from the chloroester and heating the ester to form a condensed polymeric phosphazene with P-O-P oxygen linkages. This new class of polymer phosphazenes, with P-O-P oxygen linkages, is unusually efficacious in rendering rayon flame-retardant.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 1974
    Date of Patent: November 9, 1976
    Assignee: FMC Corporation
    Inventors: Borivoj Richard Franko-Filipasic, Edward Francis Orwoll, John Francis Start
  • Patent number: 3986882
    Abstract: Regenerated cellulose filaments having dispersed therein a flame-retardant amount of phosphonitrilic esters containing a substantial amount of cyclic structures, dimerized, oligomerized, or polymerized, that are prepared by esterification of a phosphonitrilic chloride polymer with ethylene glycol.
