Some modern flameproofing processes are outlined, and the requirements of an ideal process discussed together with some methods of testing flameproofness and durability. The importance of ease of ignition as distinct from rate of burning as a fire hazard is referred to. The action of antimony oxide in association with hydrogen chloride liberated at ignition temperature is examined, and an experimental demonstration of the mechanism of the flameproofing effect of antimony chloride is described. The preparation, application, and performance of oil‐in‐water emulsions of plasticised polyvinyl chloride are discussed, and evidence of possible side‐effects of the composition and antimony oxide is supplied.
