Description of the Related Art When flame-retarding a polyolefin, which is often used as an insulating material for electric wires and cables, there is a method of adding a halogen-based flame retardant such as bromine or chlorine, or an inorganic flame-retardant as a non-halogen type. . But,
If the halogen-based flame retardant is used, there is a possibility that poisonous or corrosive gas may be generated when burned, which is a problem. On the other hand, the non-halogen type has a feature that no toxic or corrosive gas is generated during combustion, but the inorganic flame retardant used tends to absorb moisture and tends to have insufficient insulation.
Therefore, an inorganic flame retardant, for example, a metal hydroxide, mainly magnesium hydroxide, to improve the hydrophobicity by surface-treating the surface of aluminum hydroxide with a fatty acid,
Prevents moisture absorption and imparts insulation.

箇所が限られている。However, since the inorganic flame retardant whose surface is treated with a fatty acid is not sufficiently reliable in terms of durability for long-term use, the wire and cable are Although it is often used as a sheath material that does not require high insulation, it is not suitable for use as an insulator that requires high insulation, and its application is limited.

The particle size is preferably 0.3 to 1.2 μm.

It is clearly understood that all of them have excellent mechanical properties and flame retardancy while exhibiting high resistivity for a long period of time. On the other hand, from Table 2, in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 in which the surface treatment with the phosphoric acid ester was not performed even though the flame retardant of magnesium hydroxide was added, the resistivity decreased with the passage of time. Further, in Comparative Examples 4 and 5 in which the vulcanization aid other than zinc dimethacrylate was added while the vulcanization aid was added, the resistivity decreased with the lapse of time. Furthermore, in Comparative Example 6 in which zinc dimethacrylate is added as a vulcanization aid and the amount thereof is small and Comparative Example 7 in which the amount is large, the insulating property is good, but the mechanical properties are deteriorated. I have done it.
Further, although magnesium hydroxide surface-treated with a phosphoric acid ester was added as a flame retardant, the flame retardancy was poor in Comparative Example 8 in which the addition amount was small and the mechanical property in Comparative Example 9 in which the addition amount was large. The characteristics have deteriorated.
