Abstract: A flame-retardant reinforced polyamide resin composition comprising (a) a half-aromatic polyamide resin having a hexamethylene adipamide unit and a hexamethylene isophthalamide unit, (b) a melamine polyphosphate and (c) an inorganic reinforcing material, and, if necessary, (d) a polyalkylene polyhydric alcohol and/or a fatty acid ester derivative thereof, (e) a bisamide compound, (f) a metal oxide and/or a molybdate, and (g) a metal salt of a higher fatty acid having 10-25 carbon atoms. According to the composition of the present invention, molding materials can be provided which are very high in flame retardancy even when they are molded into thin-wall moldings, do not generate corrosive hydrogen halide gases during burning and, furthermore, have both excellent electric characteristics and excellent molding processability.
