The present invention provide a flame-retardant resin composition having an extremely low adhesion to metals and excellent thermal stability and light resistance and free from the formation of black extraneous matter. A flame-retardant thermoplastic resin composition characterized by being prepared by incorporating 1 to 1,000 ppm of a basic inorganic compound (D) soluble in a solvent into a resin composition (C) composed of 60 to 98% by weight of a thermoplastic styrene resin (A) and 40 to 2% by weight of a halogenated epoxy flame-retardant (B) having a terminal epoxy group.
Elastomeric compositions contain at least one elastomer and a polymer coated modified carbon product wherein the polymer at least partially coats the modified carbon product. The modified product preferably has at least one organic group attached to the carbon product and the organic group is preferably substituted with an ionic, ionizable, or polar group for preparation in polar or aqueous based media. Methods of making the polymer coated modified carbon product are also described, such as by aqueous-based or solvent free polymerization methods, organic solvent based polymerization methods, or solution coating methods. Polymeric products and masterbatches containing the polymer coated modified carbon products are also described as well as methods to improve properties such as impact properties and tensile properties.
