Abstract
To improve the thermal stability of a brominated polymer type flame retardant in a flame-retardant resin composition containing a styrene-based resin and the brominated polymer type flame retardant to provide a flame-retardant resin molded article in which occurrences of black foreign substances and discoloration decrease The flame-retardant resin composition contains a styrene-based resin, a brominated polymer type flame retardant, an epoxy compound, and a halogen capture agent, wherein a content of bromine is 18 to 42% by mass.
Claims8
A flame-retardant resin composition comprising:
- a styrene-based resin;
- a brominated polymer-based flame retardant;
- an epoxy compound;
- an antioxidant;
- and
- a halogen capture agent for improving a thermal stability of the brominated polymer-based flame retardant, the halogen capture agent consisting of a dolomite-based compound and a hydrotalcite-based compound, wherein
- a content of bromine is 18 to 42% by mass,
- 4 to 25 parts by mass of the epoxy compound, 0.8 to 7 parts by mass of the antioxidant and 0.8 to 15 parts by mass of the halogen capture agent based on a total of 100 parts by mass of the styrene-based resin and the brominated polymer-based flame retardant are present, and
- the brominated polymer-based flame retardant has the following features (a) to (f):
- (a) the brominated polymer is a brominated styrene-butadiene block copolymer having butadiene and styrene as a monomer component;
- (b) a content of the styrene monomer in the copolymer before bromination is 5 to 90% by mass;
- (c) 1,2-butadiene is contained in the butadiene;
- (d) a weight average molecular weight (Mw) is 1000 or more;
- (e) a content of unbrominated nonaromatic double bonds determined by 1H-NMR spectroscopy is less than 50% based on a content of nonaromatic double bonds of the copolymer before bromination;
- and
- (f) 5% weight reduction temperature obtained by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is 200° C. or higher.
