Abstract

ABS resin has excellently mechanical properties, heat resistance, processing property and the like. So that ABS resin is widely used for electric and electronic components, automobile components, and so on. However, the thermoplastic resins are generally flammable and, for their use, it is necessary to make the resins flame-retarded by adding a low-molecule flame-retardant or a flame-retarded polymer to the thermoplastic resins. Several methods were adopted in flame-retarding ABS resin and its alloys, such as: (1) a halogen-type flame-retardant. (2) Organic phosphate, nitrogen-containing or silicon-type fire-proofings. (3) Inorganic fillers added in preparing resin compositions. Recently, a specific aromatic phosphate provided for ABS resin and PC/ABS alloy shows a high flame retardancy, excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance and hydrolysis resistance in good balance.
