摘要 |
Polypropylene compositions having high ignition resistance, flex modulus, and impact resistance are obtained by blending polypropylene homopolymer, a propylene/ethylene copolymer, an EPM or EPDM elastomer having an ethylene content of about 50-65 weight percent and a Mooney viscosity of 35-80, mica, a commercial chlorinated fire retardant, and antimony trioxide in defined proportions. These compositions are particularly suitable for electrical wire insulation and other applications where toughness, stiffness, and ignition resistance are important.
