Abstract—To reduce the flammability of polymers, functional flame retardants have become widespread,
among which phosphorus-containing methacrylates occupy a special place. Despite the well-developed
issues of their synthesis and use, the search for new monomers of this class remains a demanding task due to
their efficiency, environmental friendliness, and a number of other reasons. This review systematizes the
results of recent research concerning phosphorus-containing polymerizable monomers of the methacrylate
series, the use of which makes it possible to reduce the flammability of the resulting materials and composites.
