Complex compound and switch containing it

摘要

A highly flame-retardant organic and inorganic complex composition without corroding metal parts, and a compact switch with excellent insulation properties after opening and closing electrodes, are provided. An organic and inorganic complex composition wherein the resin content is at 15 to 70 wt % and the content of one or more inorganic compounds capable of dehydration at 150 DEG C or more is at 80 to 30 wt %. When the composition is exposed to combustion, inorganic compounds being capable of dehydration at 150 DEG C or more and being contained in the organic and inorganic complex composition generate steam, which then suppresses combustion. Simultaneously, endothermic reaction during steam generation deprives combustion heat. A switch having a molded article of which the entirety or a part is composed of an organic and inorganic complex composition is provided, wherein the base inside 2a of the base of a box is composed of for example an organic and inorganic complex composition with the resin content at 15 to 70 wt % and the content of one or more inorganic compounds capable of dehydration at 150 DEG C or more at 80 to 30 wt %.
