Polyphenylene ether resin compositions containing halogenated aromatic compound alone as a flame retardant agent.

摘要

Flame retardant compositions comprising admixtures of polyphenylene ether resin, a polyalkenyl aromatic and as the sole flame retardant agent, a halogenated aromatic compound or mixture of such compounds, are described. These provide decided advantages over corresponding flame retardant compositions containing synergistic agents and/or aromatic phosphate flame retardants, alone, or in combination with halogenated aromatics. They are useful for shaping into a wide variety of articles for industrial or household purposes.
