Disclosed is a resin composition improved in flame retardance and electrical characteristics. Specifically disclosed is a flame retardant resin composition which is improved in electrical characteristics and composed of a base resin, a halogen flame retardant (namely, a bromine-containing flame retardant such as a brominated polybenzyl (meth)acrylate resin or brominated styrene resin), an organic phosphinic acid (such as dialkylphosphinic acid, alkylenephosphinic acid or cycloalkylenephosphinic acid) or a salt thereof (such as a metal salt or a salt with a nitrogen-containing compound having an amino group), and a flame retardant assistant which are different from the base resin (namely, an antimony-containing compound such as an antimony oxide or an antimonate, a fluorine-containing resin, a silicon-containing compound, an aromatic resin and/or a phosphorus-containing compound except for (fused) aminotriazine phosphates). This resin composition may further contain an olefin resin and an electrical characteristics improver assistant. Per 100 parts by weight of the base resin, there may be contained 3-30 parts by weight of a halogen flame retardant, 1-30 parts by weight of an organic phosphinic acid or a salt thereof, and 0.1-30 parts by weight of a flame retardant assistant. |
