Description of the Related Art Polyolefins, which have excellent electrical insulation properties, have been widely used as insulating materials and sheath materials for electric wires and cables. Recent trends include electric wires and cables for nuclear power plants, electric wires and cables for vehicles, and electric wires and cables for ships.
Cables are now required to have a high degree of flame retardancy on the level of vertical tray combustion tests.

になってきている。On the other hand, as a method of making polyolefin flame retardant, a method of incorporating a halogen-containing compound or the like has generally been adopted. However, these compounds generate a large amount of smoke when burned, causing problems such as corrosiveness to equipment and toxicity to the human body. Particularly recently, there has been a demand for not generating such halogen-based gases from the viewpoint of safety.

低下を招いたり、押出加工性が低下することがある。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, since the above-mentioned inorganic flame retardants have a small flame retardant effect, it is necessary to add a large amount of the inorganic flame retardant in order to impart a high degree of flame retardancy. This may lead to a decrease in the tensile properties and heat aging properties of the resulting insulator or sheath, or a decrease in extrusion processability.

As a result of various research and development efforts to obtain a flame retardant composition that also has excellent extrudability, mechanical properties, heat aging resistance, oil resistance, and heat deformation rate, we have found that it contains an ethylene copolymer and an inorganic flame retardant. The amount was determined.

A testing device was placed on the cable, a specified weight was placed on the cable, the cable was heated at 80° C. for 4 hours, and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The thickness of the sample after heating was measured, and the heating deformation rate was calculated from the thickness of the sample measured before heating using the following formula. Those with a heating deformation rate of less than 50% were evaluated as good, and those with a heating deformation rate of less than 50% were evaluated as poor.
