A molded article is produced from a flame retardant resin composition obtained by compounding a thermoplastic resin or thermosetting resin with a flame retardant composition comprising as essential ingredients a fluorine compound (A) represented by the following formula (1): n nR 1 —SO 2 —R 2 or R 1 —SO 3 − M + (1) n n(wherein R 1 represents a C 1 -C 12 perfluoroalkyl group, a C 2 -C 8 perfluoroalkenyl group, a C 6 -C 12 perfluoroaryl group which may be substituted, a C 3 -C 12 perfluoroalicyclic hydrocarbon group, or a C 7 -C 12 perfluoroaralkyl group; R 2 represents a halogen atom, an N-alkylamino group, or an N-alkyl-N-hydroxyalkylamino group; and M represents an alkali metal) and a polyester resin (B). The molded article has flame retardancy despite addition of the fluorine compound (A) in a very small amount. Excellent dispersion of the fluorine compound (A) is attained, and bleeding of the compound (A) is prevented. |
