Red phosphorus flame retardants for synthetic resin are produced by a method comprising the steps of heating yellow phosphorus at temperatures of 250.degree. to 600.degree. C. to effect a partial conversion of yellow phosphorus to red phosphorus; removing unconverted yellow phosphorus; a
A flame retardant comprising of spherical red phosphorus free of pulverized face which is directly produced in the form of fine powder by conversion of yellow phosphorus, without pulverizing process. The red phosphorus characterized by its surface state and shape entirely different from
