Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a composition remarkably improved in mechanical characteristics with high flame retardance by mixing a polyolefin modified with a methacrylate-based silane with an inorganic hydroxide. CONSTITUTION:A composition obtained by mixing 100 pts.wt. polyolefin modified with a methacrylate-based silane expressed by the formula CH2=C(CH3) COOCnH2nSi(OSiR3)3 (n is an integer of >=1; R is CH3 or C2H5) with 50-300 pts.wt. inorganic hydroxide. The polyolefin modified with the above-mentioned silane is obtained by graft reaction of a methacrylate-based silane with the polyolefin in the presence of an organic oxide by heating. Aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, etc., are used as the inorganic hydroxide.

The materials conventionally used as insulation and sheathing for electric wires and cables are all flammable, and in the event of a fire, the fire will travel through the wiring system of the highly integrated electric wires and cables. There are many cases where the demand for flame-retardant electric wires and cables is increasing rapidly. As a standard for flame retardancy, the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) Standard 383 VTFi' Cf1t-ReiFff1EII
), it has become common to adopt the condition of flame retardancy as passing a multi-strand flammability test that simulates the actual installation conditions of electric wires and cables.

However, such flame-retardant electrical insulation compositions generate a large amount of nonflammable halogen-based scum in the event of a fire, thereby blocking oxygen around electric wires and cables and preventing combustion. Although it exhibits sufficient flame retardant properties, many of the halogen-based gases that are generated are toxic, such as hydrogen chloride, and the visibility is poor because it generates a large amount of smoke containing such toxic gases. This may hinder evacuation and firefighting activities in the event of a fire, or the toxic residue may adversely affect the human body, causing a primary disaster.Furthermore, halogen-based gases may react with moisture in the air, causing halogen-based There is also a risk that it will turn into hydrochloric acid and corrode the switchboard.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The flame-retardant composition containing the above-mentioned inorganic hydroxide utilizes the endothermic action of the hydroxide when it releases crystal water in the event of a fire as a flame-retardant effect. However, these inorganic hydroxides have extremely low flame retardancy compared to the halogen-based and phosphorus-based compounds mentioned above, so they have to be mixed in larger amounts. As a result, there is a problem in that mechanical properties such as tensile properties and scratch resistance are significantly reduced.
