PURPOSE:To obtain a flame-retardant resin compsn. having excellent flexibility, thermal aging resistance and processability, by blending EVA or EEA with an ethylene/propylene/diene copolymer, a specified antioxidant and a flame retarder. CONSTITUTION:A resin compsn. contains 40-80pts.wt. ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) and/or ethylene/ethyl acrylate copolymer (EEA) (A), 20-60pts. wt. ethylene/propylene/diene copolymer (B) having an ethylene content of at least 50mol% and 10-200pts.wt. at least one antioxidant selected from among 1,3,5-tris(3,',5'-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)-isocyanurate and benzimidazole compds. and a flame retarder (C). If desired, conventional additives may be added to the compsn. |
