DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a resin composition for a transformer made of a flame-retardant reinforced polybutylene terephthalate resin using a specific non-halogen flame retardant, and a transformer made of the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a resin composition for a transformer member having excellent heat resistance, low warpage, epoxy adhesion, and flame retardancy, and a transformer member.

2. Description of the Related Art Polybutylene terephthalate resin (PB)
T) is utilized in a wide range of fields such as mechanical mechanism parts, electric and electronic parts, and automobile parts by making use of its excellent characteristics. Further, by compounding a fiber reinforced material with PBT, it is widely used as a material having further excellent mechanical properties and heat resistance. Among the fiber reinforcements, glass fibers are particularly used. Because PBT is inherently flammable, it is particularly safe to use as an electrical or electronic component, in addition to the balance of general chemical properties and physical properties such as heat resistance and impact strength, as well as flame safety, Often flame retardancy is required. Transformers such as flyback transformers and focus cases mounted on electrical products such as televisions and personal computer displays are used with thermosetting epoxy resin encapsulated inside.
Low warpage is required so that the epoxy resin before curing does not leak, and adhesion to the epoxy resin is required.
In addition, since the temperature inside the product becomes high, a high heat deformation temperature is required.

[0003] As a method of imparting flame retardancy to PBT,
In general, a method of compounding a resin with a halogen-based organic compound as a flame retardant and an antimony compound as a flame retardant aid is used. However, this method tends to generate a large amount of smoke during combustion. Therefore, in recent years, it has been strongly desired to use a flame retardant containing no halogen at all.

Heretofore, as a method of flame retardation without using a halogen-based flame retardant, it has been widely known to add a hydrated metal compound such as aluminum hydroxide or magnesium hydroxide. In order to obtain flammability, it is necessary to add a large amount of the above-mentioned hydrated metal compound, which has a disadvantage that the inherent properties of PBT are lost.

On the other hand, as a method for making a thermoplastic resin flame-retardant without using such a hydrated metal compound, the addition of red phosphorus is disclosed in JP-A-51-150553 and JP-A-5-150553.

[0006]

However, all of these resin compositions are useful flame-retardant resin materials which do not use a halogen-based flame retardant. Adhesiveness or heat deformation temperature is deteriorated, so that there is a problem that the internal epoxy resin is not filled with a predetermined amount or the product does not adhere to the epoxy resin, and thus sufficient product performance cannot be obtained. .

Accordingly, the present invention provides a flame-retardant polybutylene terephthalate resin composition which uses a non-halogen flame retardant, is excellent in low warpage, epoxy adhesion, heat distortion temperature and flame retardancy, and is suitable for use as a transformer member. Another object of the present invention is to provide a transformer member comprising the same.

Flame retardancy was evaluated according to a predetermined evaluation standard. Flame retardant level is V-0
>V-1>V-2> HB. The thickness of the test piece was 1/32 "or 1/64". The smaller the thickness, the more severe the flame retardancy.

(4) Epoxy Adhesive An epoxy-based adhesive ("Aradite" manufactured by Showa Kogaku KK) was applied to the 1/32 "thickness flame retardant test piece obtained in the above (3) in the longitudinal direction of 3 cm. "Rabbit was applied, and the coated portion of the uncoated 1/32" thick flame retardant evaluation test piece was bonded in the longitudinal direction. After leaving at room temperature for 2 days, the unbonded portion was subjected to a tensile tester. The sheet was sandwiched between chucks to determine the tensile strength, and the value was defined as the epoxy adhesive strength.
