Abstract

A polymer having a structural unit represented by the following general formula (I), a flame-retardant composition comprising the polymer, and a method for producing the polymer. In the general formula (I), R 1 represents any one selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, and an aralkyl group having 7 to 18 carbon atoms; R 2 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R 3 and R 4 each independently represent any one selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkyloxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, an alkenyloxy group having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group having 7 to 12 carbon atoms, an aralkyloxy group having 7 to 12 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, and an aryloxy group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, and R 3 and R 4 may be bonded to each other; and n is an integer of 0 to 5.

Claims (13)
