Abstract: The present invention teaches an antimony free brominated flame retardant composition, comprising a brominated flame retardant, an organic phosphorus-containing flame retardant which is an organic phosphate that is either an amorphous solid or a liquid, and a flame retardant which is a source of nitrogen and inorganic phosphorus, this source being amorphous compound. The invention further teaches textile coating formulations comprising these compositions, a process for applying them on textile fabrics, and the flame retarded fabrics coated by these compositions and formulations.

Abstract: This invention provides a composition and aqueous dispersion comprising magnesium oxide, as a sole active agent or in combination with ammonium phosphate/ammonium polyphosphate for imparting anti-bacterial and/or anti-viral properties to textile products. The present invention further provides methods for preparing such compositions and aqueous dispersions and methods of using the same for textile finishing.
