(Prior Art) Silane-crosslinked polyolefin compositions, which are obtained by crosslinking a graft polymer obtained by grafting a specific silane compound onto a polyolefin, have been widely used because of their excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, and the like. In order to make such silane-crosslinked polyolefin compositions flame retardant, there is a method of adding halogen-based flame retardants, or non-halogen-based flame retardants have the disadvantage of generating harmful gas such as hydrogen chloride gas when burned. Flame retardants, ie, those containing hydrated metal compounds such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide (for example, JP-A-59-64653), are becoming the most popular.

However, since the dehydration reaction of hydrated metal compounds starts at a relatively low temperature, it is easy to generate water, and this water promotes crosslinking. will proceed. This early crosslinking causes a problem in that the composition becomes hard, resulting in poor cross-crossing workability and poor extrusion workability. In addition to this water content, impurities such as decomposition residues of polymerization catalysts remaining in a small amount in the polyolefin polymer itself also have a problem of deteriorating extrusion processability.

The blending ratio is 3. The kraft polymer + the polyolefin. The amount is 20 to 200 parts by weight (monthly). If the amount is less than this, the flame retardance will be insufficient, and if it is more than 2, the processability and mechanical properties of the composition will be poor. In addition, from the viewpoint of preventing early crosslinking and moisture absorption during storage of the obtained composition, it is more preferable to use a hydrated metal compound whose surface is treated or embedded with a silane force, a sibling agent, etc.
