Abstract
A method for producing halogen-free, antimony-free and phosphorous-free polyamide fibers is described by incorporating an additive into the polyamide which comprises a vulcanizable mixture of silicones and a catalyst in a thermoplastic matrix. The fibers have improved flame retardancy and are used for the manufacture of carpets.
