## Abstract

Triazinylphosphonic acids of general formula (I): ##STR1## obtained by subsequent condensation reaction of a cyanuric halide with a osphite and with amines, and then by hydrolysis reaction of the intermediate thus obtained; The compounds of general formula (I) are used in particular as flame retardant additives.
