Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a flame-retardant thermoplastic resin composition which is excellent in transparency and also in laser marking and has a melt-dripping property.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, ABS resin with flame retardancy is
Due to its excellent moldability and mechanical properties, it is widely used in the electrical and electronic fields and OA equipment fields.
However, the ABS resin has a drawback that it easily burns, and in the field where flame retardancy is required, a flame retardant ABS resin composition containing a flame retardant, a flame retardant aid, etc. is generally used. . On the other hand, in recent years, the requirement for transparency has been increasing as a design requirement, but normally ABS resin is opaque, and a flame-retardant ABS resin composition obtained by adding a flame retardant to ABS resin is naturally opaque. . Further, when a flame retardant is simply added to a transparent ABS resin that has been conventionally used for transparency, flame retardancy is obtained, but transparency is impaired. Therefore, until now, there is no technique for making the ABS resin composition flame-retardant while maintaining the transparency. Further, there is known a laser marking technique in which when a resin material prepared by mixing a thermoplastic resin with a certain black compound is irradiated with laser light, the irradiated portion is changed to black, white or chromatic color. Such laser marking technology is used for key printing on keyboards, character printing on OA device panels such as FAX machines, etc., and does not use ink or coating materials, as compared with the tampo printing that has been used conventionally. It is excellent in terms of cost, durability of letters, and recyclability of resin. As described above, a flame-retardant ABS resin composition which is transparent and has excellent laser marking property has not been developed so far.
