Abstract: The invention relates to a flame-retardant polyester or polyamide composition that contains a combination of a compound derived from triazine and an organic phosphorus compound. By choosing as the triazine compound a melamine condensation product, for example melam, a UL 94 V-0 and GWFI 960° classification can be obtained for glass-fibre reinforced polyester or polyamide with a relatively low concentration of flame-retardant additives, and without good mechanical properties being affected. Unusual is moreover that the CTI value can again be brought to 600 Volt for this glass-fibre reinforced polyester or polyamide. In a preferred embodiment use is made of a phosphorus-containing compound containing more than 14 wt. % P. The use thereof with for example melamine cyanurate results in optimum flame-retardant behaviour at a low total concentration of flame-retardant additives. Important additional aspects are improved crystallisation behaviour and a high stiffness.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plastic sheeting which is suitable, in particular, for application in the construction industry. It is obtained by employing polyetherester block copolymers and has good humidity-regulating properties and water impermeability. Flame retardancy in accordance with DIN 4102 B2 is obtained by employing melamine, melamine compounds or melamine condensates in the polyetherester composition for the sheeting.
