Abstract

Abstract Thermoplastic molding compositions based on rubber-modified styrene-acrylonitrile copolymers containing a halogenated styrene oligomer as the effective flame-proofing agent which is sufficiently heat-stable, does not interfere with processing on conventional machinery, does not corrode or cause coatings on such machinery, and has virtually no adverse effect on the impact strength of the polymers. The flameproofing agent as a rule has a degree of polymerization of from 3 to 200 and can be incorporated into the polymer by conventional methods; the polymer may or may not contain additional synergistic agents and processing auxiliaries, which are incorporated in the conventional manner and in the conventional amounts.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 200 words
A thermoplastic molding composition comprising (A) from 6 to 100 percent by weight, based on (A+B), of a graft product manufactured by graft polymerization of 1. from 10 to 95 percent by weight, based on (A), of a mixture of styrene and acrylonitrile or an alkyl derivative thereof in the weight ratio of from 90:10 to 60:40, in the presence of 2. from 90 to 5 percent by weight, based on (A), of a rubbery polymer having a glass transition temperature of below 0° C., (B) from 0 to 94 percent by weight, based on (A+B), of a copolymer of styrene and acrylonitrile or an alkyl derivative thereof in the weight ratio of from 90:10 to 60:40, the content of the rubbery polymer (A 2) in the molding composition being from 5 to 40 percent by weight based on the sum of (A+B), (C) from 5 to 30 percent by weight, based on the sum of (A+B), of one or more heat-stable brominated styrene oligomers which contain 40 to 80 percent by weight of bromine and which have a mean degree of polymerization of from 3 to 200 to act as a flameproofing agent, with or without (D) further additives.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 200 words
A thermoplastic molding composition comprising (A) from 6 to 100 percent by weight, based on (A+B), of a graft product manufactured by graft polymerization of 1. from 10 to 95 percent by weight, based on (A), of a mixture of styrene and acrylonitrile or an alkyl derivative thereof in the weight ratio of from 90:10 to 60:40, in the presence of 2. from 90 to 5 percent by weight, based on (A), of a rubbery polymer having a glass transition temperature of below 0° C., (B) from 0 to 94 percent by weight, based on (A+B), of a copolymer of styrene and acrylonitrile or an alkyl derivative thereof in the weight ratio of from 90:10 to 60:40, the content of the rubbery polymer (A 2) in the molding composition being from 5 to 40 percent by weight based on the sum of (A+B), (C) from 5 to 30 percent by weight, based on the sum of (A+B), of one or more heat-stable brominated styrene oligomers which contain 40 to 80 percent by weight of bromine and which have a mean degree of polymerization of from 3 to 200 to act as a flameproofing agent, with or without (D) further additives.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
A thermoplastic molding composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein a synergistic flameproofing agent is present in addition to the halogenated styrene oligomers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A thermoplastic molding composition as claimed in claim 2, wherein the synergistic agent is antimony trioxide.
