Abstract:
A flame-retardant resin composition having 25 to 250 parts by weight of (D) a flame-retardant inorganic compound per 100 parts by weight of a base resin composition, comprising:(A) a copolymer of an ethylene and a vinyl acetate and other polar group-containing monomer, (B) a copolymer of an olefin and an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester, as indispensable components, and (C) a thermoplastic resin other than the above (A) and (B) copolymers, as an optional component, wherein the copolymer (A) contains 20 to less than 98% by weight of an ethylene, 2 to less than 80% by weight of a vinyl acetate, and more than 0 to 40% by weight of the other polar group-containing monomer and said copolymer (A) has a melt flow rate (MFR), at 190Â° C. under a load of 2160 g, of from 0.1 to 100 g/10 minutes, and wherein the copolymer (B) contains 20 to 98% by weight of an olefin 2 to 80% by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester, and said copolymer (B) has a melt flow rate (MFR), at 190Â° C. under a load of 2160 g, of from 0.1 to 100 g/10 minutes, and wherein said base resin composition contains the copolymer (A) in an amount of from 95 to 5% by weight, the copolymer (B) in an amount of from 95 to 5% by weight and the thermoplastic resin (C) in an amount of up to 49% by weight, per total flame retardant resin composition.
