| abstract |
The invention relates to the use of thermoplastic moulding materials, comprising A) 10 to 97 wt% of a thermoplastic polyamide, B) 1 to 10 wt% of red phosphorous, C) 0.15 to 6 wt% of a dialkyl-phosphine acid salt, wherein the ratio of B) to C) equals 6:1 to 6:4, D) 1 to 10 wt% of an ethylene copolymer as impact modifier, comprising as component D) a copolymer of D1) 40 to 98 wt% ethylene D2) 2 to 40 wt% of a (meth)acrylate having 1 to 18 C atoms, and/or D3) 0 to 20 wt% of a functional monomer selected from the group of ethylenic unsaturated mono or dicarboxylic acids or carboxylic acid anhydrides or epoxy groups or mixtures thereof, or an ethylene (meth)acrylic acid copolymer, which is neutralized up to 72% by zinc, E) 0 to 5 wt% talc having an average particle size (d50 value) of less than 7.5 µm, F) 0 to 60 wt% of additional additives, wherein the total of the weight percentages of the components A) to F) equals 100%, for producing flame-retardant, glow wire resistant moulded articles. |
