The dibromostyrene graft lattices possessing desired physical properties combined with flame retardancy have passed five different flammability tests for the following applications: textile backcoating (MVSS-302 flammability test), contact adhesive (exposure to a 3 in blue methane Bunsen burner flame), latex binder (exposure to a 4 in high, 1950{degrees}F propane flame from a Fisher burner), latex sealant (the Butler chimney flammability test, AST4 D-3014) and latex paint (the limiting oxygen index test, ASTM D-2863).
