Compositions useful for the flame retardant finishing of cotton articles or other cellulose materials are described. The compositions are obtainable by reacting a tetrakishydroxyalkylphosphonium (THP) salt with caprolactam and urea to form a condensation product and subsequently forming a condensate from excess THP salt and excess urea. The compositions endow cotton articles with flame retardant properties and a pleasantly soft hand coupled with good durability to laundering processes.

Flame retardant composition for cotton articles

The use is described of aqueous dispersions in combination with fluoropolymers for oil- and water-repellent finishing of fiber materials. These dispersions have a long shelf life and contain a composition which is preparable by reaction of polyfunctional isocyanates with a deficiency of comparatively long-chain monohydric alcohols, subsequent reaction with a deficiency of a ketone oxime and final reaction with polyhydric alcohols or amino alcohols.
