Abstract: A flame retarding polypropylene fiber and flame retarding polypropylene film having both good flame retardancy and good fiber strength and film strength, and generating no toxic gas, and a production method thereof are provided. 0.5 to 3.0% by weight of a NOR type hindered amine-based stabilizer and 0.5 to 3.0% by weight of a phosphoric ester-based flame retardant are mixed with a polypropylene resin having a melt flow rate value of 5 to 50 g/10 min., the mixture is spun to form an unstretched yarn, and then the yarn is stretched at a stretching magnification of 2 to 7-fold and a stretching temperature of 50 to 100° C., and further set thermally at a temperature of 60 to 140° C. Since the flame retarding polypropylene fiber obtained contains the above-mentioned range of the NOR type hindered amine-based stabilizer and the phosphoric ester-based flame retardant, it has both adequate fiber strength and good flame retardancy.

Abstract: A method for producing a flame retarding polypropylene fiber having both good flame retardancy and good fiber strength, and which generates no toxic gas, includes mixing 0.4% by wt. or more of a hindered amine-based stabilizer and 0.5% by wt. or more of a phosphoric ester-based flame retardant with a polypropylene resin having an MPR of 5 to 50 g/10 min, melt-spinning the mixture to form an undrawn yarn, drafting the yarn at a drafting magnification of 2 to 7 fold and a drafting temperature of 50 to 100° C., and further thermally setting at 60 to 140° C.
