Abstract

Abstract A flameproofed nylon molding composition which can be processed by thermoplastic methods and which contains, as the flameproofing agent, from 5 to 30% by weight of brominated styrene oligomers and a synergistic metal oxide. The compositions may be used for the manufacture of injection moldings for the electrical industry.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition which can be processed by thermoplastic methods and which contains a halogen-containing flameproofing agent and a synergistic metal oxide, with or without a filler, wherein the flameproofing agent comprises from 5 to 30% by weight, based on the total molding composition, of brominated styrene oligomers, said oligomers containing from 40 to 80% by weight of bromine, having a mean degree of polymerization of from 3 to 90, and having been manufactured by nuclear bromination of styrene oligomers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition which can be processed by thermoplastic methods and which contains a halogen-containing flameproofing agent and a synergistic metal oxide, with or without a filler, wherein the flameproofing agent comprises from 5 to 30% by weight, based on the total molding composition, of brominated styrene oligomers, said oligomers containing from 40 to 80% by weight of bromine, having a mean degree of polymerization of from 3 to 90, and having been manufactured by nuclear bromination of styrene oligomers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 1, which contains from 2 to 15% by weight of the synergistic metal oxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein the metal oxide is antimony oxide, lead oxide, zinc oxide or iron oxide, which may or may not be precipitated on an inorganic carrier.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 62 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 1, which contains from 5 to 30 percent by weight of brominated styrene oligomers, from 2 to 15 percent by weight of the synergistic metal oxide and from 1 to 30 percent by weight of a polymeric organic filler which prevents dripping of burning particles in the event of a fire.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 33 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 4, wherein the polmeric organic filler is polytetrafluoroethylene or a graft copolymer of one or more vinyl monomers and a rubbery polymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 49 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 1, which contains from 5 to 30 percent by weight of brominated styrene oligomers, from 2 to 15 percent by weight of the synergistic metal oxide and from 5 to 60 percent by weight of an inorganic filler.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 6, wherein the inorganic filler is a silicate or a carbonate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 20 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 6, wherein the inorganic filler consists of glass fibers.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 42 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 6, which contains as the inorganic filler from 10 to 40 percent by weight of glass fibers and from 2 to 20 percent by weight of a skeleton-forming non-fibrous inorganic filler.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 24 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 9, wherein the skeleton-forming filler is kaolin, talc, chalk, quartz, mica or bentonite.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 23 words
A synthetic linear polyamide as set forth in claim 1, wherein nylon 6 to nylon 6,6 is used as the synthetic linear polyamide.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 30 words
A synthetic linear polyamide molding composition as set forth in claim 1, wherein the brominated styrene oligomers consist predominantly of polymerized dibromostyrene, the bromine being introduced before or after polymerization.
