Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a flame retardant which, when added to a resin, exhibits excellent acid resistance and dispersibility and giving a composition inhibited from foaming during processing by forming a specified amount of aluminum hydroxide in the form of a film on the surfaces of magnesium hydroxide particles. SOLUTION: A film of aluminum hydroxide in an amount corresponding to 0.05-5 wt.% in terms of Al2 O3 is formed on the surfaces of magnesium hydroxide particles. The magnesium hydroxide may be anything that has a BET specific surface area of 20 m<2> /g or below and a mean particle diameter of 5 μm or below and is used as a flame retardant. The magnesium hydroxide coated with aluminum hydroxide can be used as such. However, when it is used after being surface-treated with a higher fatty acid, a phosphoric ester or an alkali metal salt thereof, it can show improved acid resistance, improved compatibility with resins, improved dispersibility and can give a composition having improved moldability and being capable of giving moldings improved in physical properties.

Magnesium hydroxide, which is currently used as a flame retardant grade, reduces crystal defects, increases the crystal particle size as long as the flame retardancy and physical properties of the resin composition are not reduced, and reduces acid reactivity. In addition, it is put to practical use by imparting water resistance and acid resistance by surface treatment with a higher fatty acid salt or phosphoric acid.

However, in applications under a high-temperature and high-humidity atmosphere where carbon dioxide gas is present or in locations exposed to acid rain, a higher flame-retardant level is required from each application field. When the amount is increased, the acid resistance of the resin composition is reduced accordingly. Therefore, magnesium hydroxide particles having further enhanced acid resistance are desired.

As described above, a resin composition using magnesium hydroxide as a flame retardant is inferior in acid resistance and carbon dioxide gas resistance. Specifically, the magnesium hydroxide in the resin composition reacts with carbon dioxide in the air to precipitate magnesium carbonate on the surface of the molded product, causing a so-called whitening phenomenon, and the resin composition caused by elution of magnesium hydroxide due to acid rain. This causes a problem that the flame retardancy is reduced due to a change in the flame retardancy. In recent years, attempts have been made to improve the acid resistance and carbon dioxide resistance of magnesium hydroxide. However, since the cohesion is high and the dispersibility in the resin is poor, both the mechanical properties and the appearance are not practical. An object of the present invention is to provide a flame retardant and a flame retardant resin composition which can improve these problems.
