Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 143 words
A polyphenylene ether resin composition having excellent first retardancy comprising (A) a polyphenylene ether resin, and (B) at least one phosphate compound selected from the group consisting of biphenylyl phosphate compounds represented by the following formula ##STR16## wherein x is 1 or 2, and R 11 represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or a phenyl group, provided that the biphenyl group and phenyl group may each be substituted by an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and naphthyl phosphate compounds represented by the following formula ##STR17## wherein y is 1 or 2, and R 22 represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or a phenyl group, provided that the naphthyl group and phenyl group may each be substituted by an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 143 words
A polyphenylene ether resin composition having excellent first retardancy comprising (A) a polyphenylene ether resin, and (B) at least one phosphate compound selected from the group consisting of biphenylyl phosphate compounds represented by the following formula ##STR16## wherein x is 1 or 2, and R 11 represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or a phenyl group, provided that the biphenyl group and phenyl group may each be substituted by an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and naphthyl phosphate compounds represented by the following formula ##STR17## wherein y is 1 or 2, and R 22 represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or a phenyl group, provided that the naphthyl group and phenyl group may each be substituted by an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words

Claim 5
Dependent Claim 65 words
The polyphenylene ether resin composition of claim 2 wherein the polystyrene resin is a resin containing at least 25% by weight of recurring structural units represented by the following general formula ##STR19## wherein R 4 represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, Z represents a halogen atom or a lower alkyl group, and p is zero or an integer of 1 to 3.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
The polyphenylene ether resin composition of claim 1 where in the amount of the phosphate compound is 1 to 50% by weight.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 21 words
The polyphenylene ether resin composition of claim 2 wherein the amount of the phosphate compound is 1 to 50% by weight.
