A phosphorus-containing flame retardant is produced by preparing a reaction mixture, the reaction mixture including a phosphonic acid, a solvent for the phosphonic acid, and a metal or suitable metal compound, and reacting the phosphonic acid and the metal or suitable metal compound under conditions as described herein. The chemical composition of the resulting flame retardant product leads to excellent flame retardancy and exhibits high thermal stability. The presently disclosed flame retardants are useful, for example, in polymer compositions, particularly thermoplastics processed at high temperatures, over a wide range of applications.

A phosphorus-containing flame retardant, a preparation method thereof, a resin composition comprising the phosphorus-containing flame retardant and an article made therefrom are disclosed. The phosphorus-containing flame retardant is characterized by having the advantages of high phosphorus content, high resin compatibility, not increasing gel time of varnish and low water absorption rate, and is therefore suitable for use as a flame retardant of various resin materials.
