POLYAMIDE COMPOSITIONS AND ARTICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18682346 titled 'POLYAMIDE COMPOSITIONS AND ARTICLE

The patent application describes a polyamide composition consisting of a polyamide, a polyketone, a flame retardant, and a flame retardant synergist.

  • The composition includes 10 to 60% by weight of polyamide, 10 to 60% by weight of polyketone, 5 to 25% by weight of a flame retardant, and 0.5 to 10% by weight of a flame retardant synergist.
  • The polyamide in the composition contains structural units with more than 6 carbon atoms.
  • The composition can be used to produce various articles.

Potential Applications:

  • The polyamide composition can be used in the manufacturing of flame-retardant products such as automotive parts, electrical components, and construction materials.

Problems Solved:

  • The composition addresses the need for flame retardant materials in various industries to improve safety standards.

Benefits:

  • Improved fire resistance properties in products made from the polyamide composition.
  • Enhanced durability and strength due to the combination of polyamide and polyketone.

Commercial Applications:

  • The polyamide composition can find applications in industries such as automotive, electronics, and construction for producing flame-retardant and durable products.

Questions about the Polyamide Composition: 1. How does the addition of a flame retardant synergist enhance the flame retardant properties of the composition? 2. What are the specific structural units in the polyamide that contribute to its fire resistance capabilities?


Original Abstract Submitted

Described herein is a polyamide composition, including: (A) 10 to 60% by weight of a polyamide, (B) 10 to 60% by weight of a polyketone, (C) 5 to 25% by weight of a flame retardant, and (D) 0.5 to 10% by weight of a flame retardant synergist, each being based on the total weight of the polyamide composition, where the polyamide has at least one type of structural units of more than 6 carbon atoms. Also described herein is an article produced from the polyamide composition.
