Abstract
A flame-retarded polyolefin fiber made of a thermoplastic polyolefin and a graft copolymer composition represented by tile formula: ##STR1## in which PP is polypropylene, and S represents grafted side chains having halogenated monomeric units of the formula: ##STR2## wherein x=1 to 4, R.sub.8 is H or CH.sub.3, R.sub.9 is H or a C.sub.1-4 alkyl group, and R.sub.10 is Br or Cl. In an alternate embodiment the flame-retarded polyolefin fiber further includes a halogenated bisphenol derivative represented by the formula: ##STR3## in which R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 are H, CH.sub.3 or a halogen, R.sub.5 is H, dihaloethyl, dihalopropyl or dihalobutyl, and A is a single bond, O, CO, S, SO.sub.2 or C(R.sub.6)(R.sub.7), where R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 are H or a C.sub.1-4 alkyl.
