Compositions for additive manufacturing applications are described herein which, in some embodiments, impart flame resistant and/or flame retardant properties to articles printed or formed from the compositions. The compositions may also impart desirable mechanical properties to the articles. In some embodiments, a composition comprises a sinterable powder or a thermoplastic polymer in an amount of 10-99 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, and an oxygen-deprivation additive in an amount of up to 25 wt. %, up to 15 wt. %, or up to 10 wt. % based on the total weight of the composition. The oxygen-deprivation additive comprises at least one of (a) an organophosphorus component, (b) a heptazine or melamine-derived component, and (c) a polymeric organobromine component.
