Abstract

Abstract A fire-retarding resin composition composed of (a) a thermoplastic resin, (b) about 20 to about 60% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c), of a magnesium hydroxide powder whose surface is treated with an alkali metal oleate, and (c) about 0.1 to about 10% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c), of at least one fatty acid metal salt selected from the group consisting of magnesium oleate and aluminum oleate; and a fire retardant composition for thermoplastic resins, said composition comprising (b) a magnesium hydroxide powder whose surface is treated with an alkali metal oleate, and (c) at least one fatty acid metal salt selected from the group consisting of magnesium oleate and aluminum oleate, the weight ratio of (b) to (c) being from 2 to 600:1.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A fire-retarding resin composition composed of (a) a thermoplastic resin, (b) about 20 to about 60% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c), of a magnesium hydroxide powder whose surface is treated with an alkali metal oleate, and (c) about 0.1 to about 10% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c), of at least one fatty acid metal salt selected from the group consisting of magnesium oleate and aluminum oleate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
A fire-retarding resin composition composed of (a) a thermoplastic resin, (b) about 20 to about 60% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c), of a magnesium hydroxide powder whose surface is treated with an alkali metal oleate, and (c) about 0.1 to about 10% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c), of at least one fatty acid metal salt selected from the group consisting of magnesium oleate and aluminum oleate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 72 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said magnesium hydroxide powder has (i) a BET specific surface area of about 1 to about 20 m 2 /g, and (ii) a x/ε B ratio, which is the ratio of its average second order particle diameter (x) determined by the LUZEX method to its average second order particle diameter (ε B ) calculated from the BET specific surface area, of not more than about 2.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein the alkali metal oleate is sodium oleate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the alkali metal oleate is sodium or potassium oleate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 13 words
The composition of claim 4 wherein the alkali metal oleate is sodium oleate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 62 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the amount of the magnesium hydroxide powder (b) is from about 30 to about 55% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c); and the amount of the fatty acid metal salt (c) is from about 0.5 to about 6% by weight, based on the total weight of (a), (b) and (c).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 56 words
A fire retardant composition for thermoplastic resins, said composition comprising (b) a magnesium hydroxide powder whose surface is treated with an alkali metal oleate, and (c) at least one fatty acid metal salt selected from the group consisting of magnesium oleate and aluminum oleate, the weight ratio of (b) to (c) being from 2 to 600:1.
