Abstract

Flame retardancy is provided to polymer resins by adding to the resin a bisaryl diphosphate that has not been purified to remove catalyst or catalyst residue from the product. The bisaryl diphosphate may be prepared by a two-step process that starts with the semi-continuous addition of dry bisphenol A to a heated mixture of phosphorus oxychloride and MgCl, and concludes with the addition of dry phenol to the step one intermediate.
