れている。Methacrylic resin has excellent optical properties and weather resistance,
Because it has good heat resistance and mechanical properties, it is widely used in lighting materials, electronic equipment parts, office automation equipment, automobile parts, and architectural parts such as exteriors. On the other hand, because methacrylic resin is easily flammable, it is often subject to various restrictions, such as U.S. UL regulations for home appliances and OA equipment.
(Underwriters, Laboratories) There are standards, etc.
In order to maintain combustibility suitable for such materials, a method is usually used in which a flame retardant such as a certain type of phosphorus halide compound is added in advance (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publications No. 49-107352, No. 51-58452). , a method of adding a halogenated flame retardant to a methacrylic acid ester copolymer having an intrinsic viscosity within a certain range (JP-A-1-217055)
Alternatively, a method has been proposed in which an organic phosphonic acid ester is added to a copolymer of methyl methacrylate and bromophenyl methacrylate (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 48-83144).
