Abstract
The present invention relates to novel polychlorophosphazenes and to the process for their preparation. These polychlorophosphazenes of the general formula: Cl.sub.2 (O)P[NPCl.sub.2 ].sub.n Cl are prepared by the polycondensation of P trichloro-N dichlorophosphoryl-monophosphazene with the controlled release of POCl.sub.3 according to the equation: ##STR1## The novel polychlorophosphazenes so obtained are useful as antiflame materials, as coatings, as fertilizers, etc.
