A fire retardant polyamide composition comprising at least 35% by weight of polyamide having a molecular weight of at least 3000, at least 3.5% but preferably not more than 10% by weight of the condensation product of 2 moles perchlorocyclopentadiene and 1 mole of 1,5-cyclooctadiene, at least 2%, preferably at least 4% desirably not more than 10% by weight of melamine, a salt of melamine or an organic derivative of melamine and at least 0.5%, but preferably not more than 5.0% of at least one oxide selected from iron oxide and tin oxide, wherein the weight ratio of chlorinated compound to oxide is between 1:1 and 10:1 preferably between 2:1 and 6:1 and the constituents of the composition total 100%. The composition provides improved burning performance in the UL94 test in that dripping is prevented. The composition also provides acceptable burning performance at a lower concentration of total additives than when halogenated fire retardant/synergistic oxide combinations are used. |
