Abstract: A covering material for an electric wire contains a polyvinyl chloride. The covering material has a property of a change curve of loss modulus with respect to temperature which shows no peak within a temperature range in a usage environment for the electric wire.

Abstract: A resin composition for heat-resistant electrical wires is configured of 100 parts by weight of base resin ingredients and 5-20 parts by weight of a phosphorus-based flame retardant, the base resin ingredients comprising 30-55 parts by weight of a polymer having a glass transition temperature or melting point of 180° C. or higher, 15-49 parts by weight of polyolefin, and 21-30 parts by weight of a styrene-based elastomer ingredient, the styrene-based elastomer ingredient having a content of the styrene unit represented by chemical formula (I) of 30% by weight or less.

Abstract: Provided is a resin composition for heat-resistant electrical wires which has high heat resistance and flame retardancy and combines excellent heat aging resistance and compatibility with PVC. The resin composition for heat-resistant electrical wires is configured of 100 parts by weight of base resin ingredients and 5-20 parts by weight of a phosphorus-based flame retardant, the base resin ingredients comprising 30-55 parts by weight of a polymer having a glass transition temperature or melting point of 180° C. or higher, 15-49 parts by weight of a polyolefin, and 21-30 parts by weight of a styrene-based elastomer ingredient, the styrene-based elastomer ingredient having a content of the styrene unit represented by chemical formula (I) of 30% by weight or less.
