[ (b) component: melamine cyanurate
The (b) melamine cyanurate used in the present invention is an equimolar reaction product of melamine and cyanuric acid, and is obtained, for example, by: an aqueous melamine solution and an aqueous cyanuric acid solution are stirred and mixed at a temperature of about 90 ℃ to about 100 ℃ to react to obtain a product, and the product is precipitated and filtered. The obtained substance is a white solid, and is preferably used by pulverizing into fine powder.
In the present embodiment, the melamine cyanurate may contain unreacted melamine or cyanuric acid in an amount of 0.001 to 0.30 mass%. Such melamine cyanurate is commercially available, and industrially available products can be suitably used.
The median particle diameter (D50) of the melamine cyanurate (b) before mixing with the polyamide as the component (a) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1 to 20 μm, and more preferably 1.5 to 15 μm from the viewpoint of dispersibility of the melamine cyanurate. When the median particle diameter of the melamine cyanurate is 1 μm or more, handling becomes easy, and deterioration of the cohesiveness of the melamine cyanurate can be suppressed. The melamine cyanurate has a median particle diameter of 20 μm or less, and therefore, has an excellent balance between dispersibility in the polyamide resin composition and handling properties.
Here, the median particle diameter (D50) is a particle diameter when the mass of particles having a particle diameter larger than a certain particle diameter accounts for 50% of the mass of the entire granular material in the particle diameter distribution of the granular material as defined in JIS Z8901, and can be measured by, for example, a laser diffraction scattering method. Specifically, the particle diameter is plotted on the horizontal axis and the frequency (mass) on the vertical axis by the laser diffraction scattering method, and the particle diameter at which the cumulative mass reaches 50% when the sum of the cumulative masses at the frequency is 100% is determined as the median diameter.
The amount of melamine cyanurate added is 2 to 20 parts by mass, preferably 3 to 15 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of polyamide. The amount of the melamine cyanurate is preferably 2 parts by mass or more from the viewpoint of flame retardancy, and preferably 20 parts by mass or less from the viewpoint of mechanical properties. Any known method can be used for blending the melamine cyanurate in the polyamide resin, but a method of kneading and blending in an extruder or the like is industrially preferred.
[ (c) ingredient: polyhydric alcohol and/or ester derivative thereof ]

Mention may be made of: glycols such as polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, trimethylene glycol and propylene glycol, glycols such as 1, 4-butanediol, 1, 5-pentanediol and 1, 6-hexanediol, polyols such as glycerol and pentaerythritol, and fatty acid esters of polyalkylene polyols include, for example: esters of polyalkylene polyols such as polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol and polybutylene glycol with aliphatic carboxylic acids such as capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, behenic acid, cerotic acid, montanic acid, melissic acid, oleic acid and erucic acid, and derivatives thereof are industrially readily available. From the viewpoint of dispersibility of the component (b), polyethylene glycol and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol are preferable, and higher fatty acid (having 12 or more carbon atoms) esters of polyethylene glycol and derivatives thereof are more preferable. The amount of the polyhydric alcohol and/or ester derivative thereof added is usually 0.1 to 1.0 part by mass, more preferably 0.1 to 0.8 part by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the polyamide (a). The amount of the higher fatty acid metal salt added is preferably 0.1 part by mass or more from the viewpoint of tensile elongation and preferably 1.0 part by mass or less from the viewpoint of flame retardancy.
Preferred higher fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol include polyoxyethylene monolaurate, polyoxyethylene monostearate, polyoxyethylene distearate, and polyoxyethylene monooleate, and polyoxyethylene monolaurate, polyoxyethylene monostearate, and polyoxyethylene monooleate are particularly preferred.
Further, as preferred higher fatty acid ester derivatives of polyethylene glycol, there can be mentioned: polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan tristearate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate.

Further, calcium stearate and aluminum stearate are most preferable from the viewpoint of reducing gas generation during molding. The amount of the higher fatty acid metal salt added is usually 0.01 to 5 parts by mass, and particularly preferably 0.05 to 2.0 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the polyamide (a). The amount of the additive is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more from the viewpoint of plasticization at the time of molding, and preferably 5 parts by mass or less from the viewpoint of gas generation and flame retardancy at the time of molding. These higher fatty acid metal salts may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
The resin composition of the present embodiment is a resin composition that can improve toughness and flame retardancy and reduce variation in toughness. The inventors surmised that these properties are due to a synergistic effect of the amount of molecular weight components of the polyamide and the dispersibility of the melamine cyanurate. Namely, it is estimated that: (a) the polyamide component (a) has a low molecular weight range (molecular weight of 15000 or less) showing an effect in terms of flame retardancy and molding stability (mainly at low injection pressure), and a high molecular weight range (molecular weight of 100000 or more) showing an effect in terms of toughness, and further, can exhibit these properties at a high level by improving the dispersibility of melamine cyanurate.
