Flame-retardant and glass fiber-reinforced polyester resin molding compositions

Abstract

A flame retardant, fiber-reinforced polyester resin composition exhibits decreased deformation (i.e. warpage) when molded, and includes, based on the total weight of the composition, a crystalline thermoplastic polyester base resin, between about 1 to about 60% by weight of glass fibers as a reinforcing medium, between 0.5 to 25% by weight of an organic halogen flame retardant, and between 0.1 to 5% by weight of an inorganic auxiliary flame-retardant. Important to the present invention, the glass fibers of the fibrous reinforcement medium have a non-circular cross-sectional form, and a dimension ratio of the fiber's major cross-sectional axis to the fiber's minor cross-sectional axis of between 1.5 to 5.
