Abstract

Abstract Flame-resistant plastics moulding material formed from a polymer, preferably a thermoplast, and a halogenated benzimidazolone or halogenated benzimidazolone derivative, such as N,N'-di-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrabromobenzimidazolone or 4,5,6,7-tetrabromobenzimidazolone calcium, as a flame-resistant agent. The flame-resistant agent is added to the polymer at any suitable stage of production by a simple mixing together of the constituents, whereby this flame-resistant agent must not react chemically with the polymer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 173 words
A flame-resistant plastics molding composition which comprises (a) at least one polymer other than a polysulfone in admixture with (b) 5 to 30% by weight of said polymer of a halogenated benzimidazolone of formula I ##STR3## wherein X is chlorine, bromine or a mixture thereof, n is a number from 1 to 4 inclusive, and R 1 and R 2 independently of one another are each hydrogen, --CH 2 OH, --CH 2 --CH 2 OH, ##STR4## in which a is 3 or 4; or R 1 and R 2 are each --CH 2 CH 2 COOR 3 or --CH 2 COOR 3 in which R 3 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 18 C atoms, an alkali metal ion, one equivalent of an alkaline earth metal ion or one equivalent of zinc ion; or R 1 and R 2 are each an alkali metal ion, one equivalent of an alkaline earth metal ion, or one equivalent of zinc ion; with the proviso that none of component (b) chemically reacts with said polymer (a).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 173 words
A flame-resistant plastics molding composition which comprises (a) at least one polymer other than a polysulfone in admixture with (b) 5 to 30% by weight of said polymer of a halogenated benzimidazolone of formula I ##STR3## wherein X is chlorine, bromine or a mixture thereof, n is a number from 1 to 4 inclusive, and R 1 and R 2 independently of one another are each hydrogen, --CH 2 OH, --CH 2 --CH 2 OH, ##STR4## in which a is 3 or 4; or R 1 and R 2 are each --CH 2 CH 2 COOR 3 or --CH 2 COOR 3 in which R 3 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 18 C atoms, an alkali metal ion, one equivalent of an alkaline earth metal ion or one equivalent of zinc ion; or R 1 and R 2 are each an alkali metal ion, one equivalent of an alkaline earth metal ion, or one equivalent of zinc ion; with the proviso that none of component (b) chemically reacts with said polymer (a).
