Abstract: A flame-resistant polyamide resin composition comprising components:(A) a polyamide or a blend of a polyamide with another polymer,(B) a flame retardant comprising a brominated styrene or styrene derivative polymer having acid anhydride groups, and(C) a flame retardant comprising a brominated polystyrene.

Abstract: Disclosed is an olefin polymer of having a number average molecular weight of 500 to 50,000 and having an acid anhydride group only at a terminal thereof, and a resin composition containing the olefin polymer. When the olefin polymer having an acid anhydride group only at a terminal thereof is blended with a polyamide, a resin composition having extremely improved toughness, particularly in tensile elongation as compared to the polyamide alone can be obtained.

Abstract: A high impact polyamide composition comprising at least one polyamide, at least one ethylene ionomer resin and at least one oxide or carbonate compound is specific weight proportions, wherein the polyamide has a relative viscosity of at least 3.15 in 98% sulfuric acid. The composition may further comprise an elastomeric olefin copolymer, an elastomeric styrene copolymer and/or a polyvalent alcohol. The polyamide composition has excellent mechanical strength, thermal resistance and impact strength even at weld-line portions so that it can advantageously be employed for manufacturing various shaped articles, such as automobile parts and sporting goods.
