Patent number: 6495655Abstract: The amino-aldehyde-phosphate resins and copolymers are produced by reacting an amino compound, an aldehyde and a phosphorus oxyacid, These components may be reacted at ambient or elevated temperature or at ambient, elevated or reduced pressure. They may be produced in the form of water based pre-polymer, a clear resin or as granules or powder. These resins are flame retardant and may be added to or applied on to flammable organic materials to make them flame retardant. The amino-aldehyde-phosphate resins and copolymers may be utilized as coating agent, as an adhesive, films, laminates and as flame retardant compounds.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2002Date of Patent: December 17, 2002Inventor: David H.
