- 2 - O.Z. 0050/42646 ~ Since compounds such as triphenyl phosphate can also be used as plasticizers, the addition of large quantities leads to a deterioration in the mechanical properties, for example the toughness and heat resis-tance, of such molding materials~
The addition of red phosphorus is known from EP-A 384 232, JP-A 63/089567 and JP-A 63/048356. However, the toughness properties of these molding materials are in need of improvement.
More particularly, utility for some purposes is also crucially dependent on the fracture characteristics of damaged articles. Not just a high flame resistance rating is required but also a ~ery large plastic deforma-tion before fracture (ductile fracture).
It is an object of the present invention to make available thermoplastic PPE-PA molding materials which with the addition of a very small amount of flameproofing agent po~sess not only good flame resistance properties but also very good toughness properties.
We have found that thi~ object is achieved by the thermoplastic molding material~ defined in the opening paragraph. Preferred materials of this kind and a use thereof are revealed in subclaims.
As component A) the molding materials according to the prQsent invention contain from 5 to 93~5, prefe-rably from 30 to 71, in particular from 35 to 65, ~ by weight of a thermopla~tic polyamide.
Th~ polyamides used as component A) are known per se and include the partly crystalline and amorphous resins having weight average molecular weights of at least 5000 which are usually referred to as nylons. Such polyamides are described for example in US Patents 2,071,250, 2,071,251, 2,130,523, 2,130,948, 2,~41,322, 2,312,966, 2,5t2,606 and 3,393,210.
The polyamides can be prepared for P~ample hy condensation of equimolar amount~ of a saturated or aromatic dicarboxylic acid of from 4 to 12 carbon atoms ~ ~ 7 ~ 3 - 3 - ~.Z. 0~50t42646 with a.saturated or aromatic diamine o 14 carbon atoms or by condensation of ~-aminocarboxylic acids or poly-merization of lactams.
Examples of polyamides are polyhexamethylene-adipamide (nylon 66), polyhexamethyleneazelamide (nylon69)l polyhexamethylenesebacamide (nylon 610), polyhexa-methylenedodecanediamide (nylon 612), the polyamides obtained by ring opening of lactams such as polycapro-lactam (nylon 6) and polylaurolactam, and also poly-ll-aminoundecanoic acid and a polyamide of di(p-amino-cyclohexyl)methane and dodecanedioic acid.
It is also possible to carry out the present invention using polyamides prepared by copolycondensation of two or more of the abovementioned polymers or com-ponents thereof, for example copolymers of adipic acid,isophthalic acid or terephthalic acid and hexamethylene-diamine (nylon 66/6T) or copolymers of caprolactam, terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine (nylon 6/6T).
Such partly aromatic copolyamides contain from 4Q to 90%
by weight of units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine. A small proportion of the tereph-thalic acid, preferably not more than 2Q% by weight of the total aromatic dicarboxylic acid used, may be replaced by isophthalic acid or other aromatic dicar-boxylic acids, preferably those in which ths carboxylgroups are para-disposed.
As well as units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine, the partly aromatic copolya-mides contain units derived from ~-caprolactam and/or units derived from adipic acid and haxamethylen~diamine.
The proportion of units derived from ~-caprolactam is up to 50~ by weight, preferably from 20 to 50~ by weight, in particular from 25 to 40~ by weight, while the proportion of units derived from adipic a~id and hexamethylenediamine is up to 60% by weight, prefer-ably from 30 to 60~ by weight, in particular from 35 to 55% by weight.
'? 1' 4 - O. 2 . 0050/42646 - The copolyamides may contain not only units of ~-caprolactam but also units of adipic ~cid and hexa-methylenediamine; in this case it has to be ensured that th~ proportion of units which are free of aromatic groups is not less than 10~ by weight, preferably not less than 20~ by weight. In this case, the ratio of units derived from ~-caprolactam on the one hand and from adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine on the other is not subject to any particular restriction.
Of particular advantage for many purposes are polyamides containing from 50 to 80, in particular from 60 to 75, ~ by weight of units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine and from 20 to 50, prefer-ably from 25 to 40, % by weight of units derived from ~-caprolactam.
Of particular advantage for ternary copolyamides are compositions of from 50 to 70~ by weight of units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine and from 10 to 20~ by weight of units derived from adipic acid and hexam~thylenediamine and also from 20 to 30~ by weight of units derived from isophthalic acid and hexa-methylenediamine.
The partly aromatic copolyamides may be prepared for example by the process described in EP~A-129 195 and ? 129 196.
Preference is given to linear polyamides having a melting point above 200~C.
Preferred polyamides are polyhexamethyleneadip-amide, pol~hexamethylenesebacamide and polycaprolactam and also nylon 6/6T and nylon 66/6T. The polyamides have in general a relative viscosity of from 2.0 to 5, deter mined on a 1~ by weight solution in 96% sulfuric acid at 23C, which corresponds to a molecular weight of from about 15,000 to 45,000. Polyamides having a relative viscosity of from 2.4 to 3.5~ in particular from 2.5 to 3.4, are used with preference.
It is also possible to use polyamides which are h ~ 3 _ 5 _ O.Z. 0050/42646 obtainable for example by condensation of 1,4-diamino-butane with adipic acid at el~vated temperature (nylon-4,6). Methods for preparing polyamides of this structure are described for example in EP-A 38 094, EP-A 38 582 and EP-A 39 524.
It is also possible to use mixtures of different polyamides.
As component B) the molding materials according to the present invention contain from 5 to 85, preferably from 25 to 65, in part,icular from 30 to 65, % by weight of a polyphenylene ether.
The polyphenylene ethers generally have a weight average molecular weight within the range from 10, noo to 80,000, preferably from 20,000 to 60,00Q, in particular from 40,000 to 55,000.
This corresponds to a reduced specific viscosity ~r~d Of from 0.2 to 0.9 dl/g, preferably of from 0.35 to 0.8, in particular from 0.45 to 0.6, measured in a 0.5 by weight solution in chloroform at 25C.
The unmodified polyphenylene ethers bl) are known per se and are preerably prepared by oxidative coupling of ortho-disubstituted phenols.
Examples of substituents are halogen atoms such as chlorine or bromine and alkyl radicals of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms which preferably have no a-disposed ~ertiary hydrogen atom, e.~. methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl. The alkyl radicals may in turn be substituted by halogen atoms such as chlorine or bromine or by hydroxyl. Further examples of po~sible substituents are alkoxy radicals, preferably of up to 4 carbon atoms, or unsubstituted or halogen and~or alkyl-substituted phenyl radicals. It is similarly possible to use copol~mers of various phenols, for example copolymers of 2,6-dimethylphenol and 2,3,6-trLmet~ylphenol. It is o~ course also possible ~o use mixtures of various polyphenylene ethers.
The polyphenylene ethers used as component bl) may contain process-induced flaws as described for ~ ~ 7 .~
- 6 - 0.2. 0050/42646 example by White et al.l Macromolecules 23 (1990), 1318-29.
Preference i~ given to using those polyphenylene ethers which are compatible with, i.e. wholly or sub~tan-tially soluble in, aromatic vinyl polymers (cf.A. Noshay, Block Copol~mers, pages 8 to 10, ~cademic Press, 1977, and O. Olabisi, Polymer-Polymer Miscibility, 1979, page~ 117 to 189).

Rubbers which increase the toughness of poly-amides generally have two essential features: an elas-tomeric portion which has a glass transition temperature of less than -10C, preferably of less than -30C, and at least one functional group capable of reacting with the polyamide. Suitable functional groups are for example carboxylic acid, carboxylic anhydride, carboxylic ester, carboxamide, carboximide, amino, hydroxyl, epoxy, urethane and oxazoline groups.

- 14 - O.Z. 0050~ 3 ~ 3 A further group of suitable elastomers are coreshell graft rubbers. These are graft rubbers which are prepared in emulsion and consist of at least one hard and one soft part. The hard part customarily comprises a polymer having a glass transition temperature of at least 25C and the soft part a polymer having a glass transi-tion temperature of not more than 0C. These products have a structure with a core and at least one shell, due to the order of addition of the monomars. The soft parts are in general derived from butadiene, isoprene, alkyl acrylates or alkyl methacrylates with or without further comonomers. Suitable comonomers for this purpose are for example styrene, acrylonitrile and crosslinking or grafting monomers having more than one polymerizable double bond such as diallyl phthalate, divinylbenzene, butanediol diacrylate or triallyl (iso)cyanurate.

Suitable functionalized monomer~ are for example maleic acid, maleic anhydride, mono- and diesters of maleic acid, tert-butyl (meth)acry late, ac~ylic acid, glycidyl (meth)acrylate and vinyl-oxazoline. The proportion of monomer~ having functional groups is in general from 0.1 to 25~ by weight, prefer-ably from 0.25 to 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the core-shell graft rubber. The weight ratio of soft to hard is in general from 1:9 to 9:1, preferably A~

Rubbers of this type, which increase the toughness of polyamides, are known per se and described for example in EP-A 208,187.
A further group of suita~le impact modifiers E) are thermoplastic polyester elastomers. For the purposes of the present invention polyester elastomers here are segm~nted copolyether-esters which contain long-chain segments, in general derived from poly(alkylene) ether glycols, and short-chain segments~ derived from low molecular weight diols and dicarboxylic acids. Products of this type are known per se and described in the literature, for example in US-A 3,651,014. Corresponding products are also commercially available under the designation~ Hytrel~ (Du Pont), Arnitel~ (Akzo) and Pelprene~ (Toyobo Co. Ltd.).
It is of course also possible to use mixtures of various rubbers.
As component F) the molding materials according to the present invention may contain from 0 to 45, preferably from 10 to 40, ~ by weight of fibrous or particulate fillers or mixtures thereof. Examples of fillers are carbon or glass fibers in the form of glass fabrics, glass mats or glass rovings, glass balls and also wollastonite.
Preferred fibrous reinforcing materials (com-ponent F) are carbon fibers, potassium titanate whiskers, aramid fibers and particularly preferably glass fibers.
If glass fibers are used, their compatibility with the thermoplastic polyamide (A) or the modified polyphenylene ether (B) may be improved by treating them with a size and an adhesion promoter. In general, the carbon and glass fibers used have a diameter within the range from 6 to 20 ~m.
These gla~s fibers may be incorporated not only in the form of chopped fiber but also in the foxm of continuous rovings. In the ready-produced injec~ion ~7~ 3 - 1~ - O.Z. 0050/42646 moldin~, the average length of the glass fibers i5 preferably within the range from 0.08 to 0.5 mm.
Suitable particulate fillers (component F) are amorphous silica, asbestos, magnesium carbonate (chalk), pulverulent quartz, mica, talc, feldspar and in par-ticular calcium silicates such as wollastonite and kaolin (in particular calcined kaolin).
Preferred combinations of fillers are for example 20~ by weight of glass fiber with 15% by weight of wollastonite and 15% by weight of glass fiber with 15~ by weight of wollastonite.
As well as the essential components A) to D) and the optional components E) and F) the molding materials according to the present invention may contain customary additives and processing aids G). The proportion thereof is in general up to 20, preferably up to 10, ~ by weight, based on the total weight of components A to E.
Customary additives are for example antioxidants, thermal stabilizers, W stabilizers, lubricants, demolding agents, dyes, pigments and plasticizers.
Oxidation retarders and heat stabilizers which can be added to the thermoplastic materials of the present invention are for example halidas o metals of group I of the periodic table, for example sodium, potassium or lithium halides, with or without copper(I~
halides, for example chlorides, bromides or iadides It i~ also possible to use zinc 1uoride and zinc chloride.
Other possibilities are sterically hindered phenols, hydroquinones, substituted representatives of this group and mixtures of these compounds, preferably in concentrations up to 1~ by weight, based on the weight of the mixture.
Examples of W stabilizers are various substi-tuted resorcinols, salicylAtes, benzotriazoles and benzophenones, which in general are used in amounts up ~o 2~ by weight.
Materials for enhancing the shielding from 2~7~4~
- 17 - O.~. OOS0/42646 electromagnetic waves such as metal flakes, powders, fibers and conductive polymers can also be used.
Lubricants and demolding agents, which in ~eneral are added to the thermoplastic material in amounts up to 1~ by weight, are stearic acid, stearyl alcohol, alkyl stearates, N-alkylstearamides and also esters of pentaerythritol with long-chain fatty acids.
Furthermore, it i~ advantageous to reduce the water imbibition of the polyamide by adding monophenolic compound~ such as 2- or 4-t-butylphenol or dihydroxy-biphenyls and derivatives thereof in amounts of up to 8%
by weight.
Additives also include stabilizers which prevent the decomposition of red phosphorus in the presence of moisture and atmospheric oxygen. Examples are compounds of cadmium, zinc, aluminum, silver, iron, copper, an-timony, tin, magnesium, manganese, vanadium, boron and titanium. Particularly suitable compounds are for example oxides of said metals and also carbonates or oxycar-bonates, hydroxides and also salts of organic or inorga-nic acids such as acetates or phosphates or hydrogen-phosphates and sulfates.
The thenmoplastic molding materials according to the present invention are advantageously obtained by mixing the individual components at ~rom ~70 to 350~C in customary mixing apparatus, such as kneaders, Banbury mixers and single-screw extruders, but preferably using a twin-screw extruder. To obtain as homo~eneous a molding material as possible, thorough mixing is crucial. The order of addition of components can be varied, so that two or even three components may be premixed, but it is also possible to mix all the components together.
It is to be noted that the preparation of the molding materials may be accompanied by a reaction between the components A) to D), in particular between A) and B~, so that the end product no longer represents a pure mixture of these components.
2 ~ 3 - 18 - O.Z. 0050/42646 The molding materials according to the present invention are notable for excellent flame resistance properties but in particular for very high toughness.
They are suitable in paxticular for producing shaped articles by injection or extrusion molding, in particular for thermally stressed components in the automotive sector. In the latter sector it is of par-ticular advantage that the components produced from the molding materials according to the present invention retain toughness even at low temperatures.

- 23 - O.Z. 0050/ ~ g~ 3 . The novel combination of block copolymer and pho~phorus in the molding materials achieves a V-O
classification coupled with good toughness. This is unexpected in that the block copolymer with the highest Shore A hardness gives the tougher moldings coupled with good flame resistant properties when combined with red phosphorus. When hydrogenated block copolymers (see Examples II and III) and low levels of phosphorus are used, classification under UL 94 is not possible.
The addition of red phosphorus is known from EP-A 384 232, JP-A 63/089567 and JP-A 63/048356. However, the toughness properties of these molding materials are in need of improvement.
More particularly, utility for some purposes is also crucially dependent on the fracture characteristics of damaged articles. Not just a high flame resistance rating is required but also a ~ery large plastic deforma-tion before fracture (ductile fracture).
It is an object of the present invention to make available thermoplastic PPE-PA molding materials which with the addition of a very small amount of flameproofing agent po~sess not only good flame resistance properties but also very good toughness properties.
We have found that thi~ object is achieved by the thermoplastic molding material~ defined in the opening paragraph. Preferred materials of this kind and a use thereof are revealed in subclaims.
As component A) the molding materials according to the prQsent invention contain from 5 to 93~5, prefe-rably from 30 to 71, in particular from 35 to 65, ~ by weight of a thermopla~tic polyamide.
Th~ polyamides used as component A) are known per se and include the partly crystalline and amorphous resins having weight average molecular weights of at least 5000 which are usually referred to as nylons. Such polyamides are described for example in US Patents 2,071,250, 2,071,251, 2,130,523, 2,130,948, 2,~41,322, 2,312,966, 2,5t2,606 and 3,393,210.
The polyamides can be prepared for P~ample hy condensation of equimolar amount~ of a saturated or aromatic dicarboxylic acid of from 4 to 12 carbon atoms ~ ~ 7 ~ 3 - 3 - ~.Z. 0~50t42646 with a.saturated or aromatic diamine o 14 carbon atoms or by condensation of ~-aminocarboxylic acids or poly-merization of lactams.
Examples of polyamides are polyhexamethylene-adipamide (nylon 66), polyhexamethyleneazelamide (nylon69)l polyhexamethylenesebacamide (nylon 610), polyhexa-methylenedodecanediamide (nylon 612), the polyamides obtained by ring opening of lactams such as polycapro-lactam (nylon 6) and polylaurolactam, and also poly-ll-aminoundecanoic acid and a polyamide of di(p-amino-cyclohexyl)methane and dodecanedioic acid.
It is also possible to carry out the present invention using polyamides prepared by copolycondensation of two or more of the abovementioned polymers or com-ponents thereof, for example copolymers of adipic acid,isophthalic acid or terephthalic acid and hexamethylene-diamine (nylon 66/6T) or copolymers of caprolactam, terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine (nylon 6/6T).
Such partly aromatic copolyamides contain from 4Q to 90%
by weight of units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine. A small proportion of the tereph-thalic acid, preferably not more than 2Q% by weight of the total aromatic dicarboxylic acid used, may be replaced by isophthalic acid or other aromatic dicar-boxylic acids, preferably those in which ths carboxylgroups are para-disposed.
As well as units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine, the partly aromatic copolya-mides contain units derived from ~-caprolactam and/or units derived from adipic acid and haxamethylen~diamine.
The proportion of units derived from ~-caprolactam is up to 50~ by weight, preferably from 20 to 50~ by weight, in particular from 25 to 40~ by weight, while the proportion of units derived from adipic a~id and hexamethylenediamine is up to 60% by weight, prefer-ably from 30 to 60~ by weight, in particular from 35 to 55% by weight.
'? 1' 4 - O. 2 . 0050/42646 - The copolyamides may contain not only units of ~-caprolactam but also units of adipic ~cid and hexa-methylenediamine; in this case it has to be ensured that th~ proportion of units which are free of aromatic groups is not less than 10~ by weight, preferably not less than 20~ by weight. In this case, the ratio of units derived from ~-caprolactam on the one hand and from adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine on the other is not subject to any particular restriction.
Of particular advantage for many purposes are polyamides containing from 50 to 80, in particular from 60 to 75, ~ by weight of units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine and from 20 to 50, prefer-ably from 25 to 40, % by weight of units derived from ~-caprolactam.
Of particular advantage for ternary copolyamides are compositions of from 50 to 70~ by weight of units derived from terephthalic acid and hexamethylenediamine and from 10 to 20~ by weight of units derived from adipic acid and hexam~thylenediamine and also from 20 to 30~ by weight of units derived from isophthalic acid and hexa-methylenediamine.
The partly aromatic copolyamides may be prepared for example by the process described in EP~A-129 195 and ? 129 196.
Preference is given to linear polyamides having a melting point above 200~C.
Preferred polyamides are polyhexamethyleneadip-amide, pol~hexamethylenesebacamide and polycaprolactam and also nylon 6/6T and nylon 66/6T. The polyamides have in general a relative viscosity of from 2.0 to 5, deter mined on a 1~ by weight solution in 96% sulfuric acid at 23C, which corresponds to a molecular weight of from about 15,000 to 45,000. Polyamides having a relative viscosity of from 2.4 to 3.5~ in particular from 2.5 to 3.4, are used with preference.
It is also possible to use polyamides which are h ~ 3 _ 5 _ O.Z. 0050/42646 obtainable for example by condensation of 1,4-diamino-butane with adipic acid at el~vated temperature (nylon-4,6). Methods for preparing polyamides of this structure are described for example in EP-A 38 094, EP-A 38 582 and EP-A 39 524.
It is also possible to use mixtures of different polyamides.
As component B) the molding materials according to the present invention contain from 5 to 85, preferably from 25 to 65, in part,icular from 30 to 65, % by weight of a polyphenylene ether.
The polyphenylene ethers generally have a weight average molecular weight within the range from 10, noo to 80,000, preferably from 20,000 to 60,00Q, in particular from 40,000 to 55,000.

The hard part customarily comprises a polymer having a glass transition temperature of at least 25C and the soft part a polymer having a glass transi-tion temperature of not more than 0C. These products have a structure with a core and at least one shell, due to the order of addition of the monomars.

A further group of suita~le impact modifiers E) are thermoplastic polyester elastomers. For the purposes of the present invention polyester elastomers here are segm~nted copolyether-esters which contain long-chain segments, in general derived from poly(alkylene) ether glycols, and short-chain segments~ derived from low molecular weight diols and dicarboxylic acids. Products of this type are known per se and described in the literature, for example in US-A 3,651,014.

Other possibilities are sterically hindered phenols, hydroquinones, substituted representatives of this group and mixtures of these compounds, preferably in concentrations up to 1~ by weight, based on the weight of the mixture.
Examples of W stabilizers are various substi-tuted resorcinols, salicylAtes, benzotriazoles and benzophenones, which in general are used in amounts up ~o 2~ by weight.

by weight.
Additives also include stabilizers which prevent the decomposition of red phosphorus in the presence of moisture and atmospheric oxygen. Examples are compounds of cadmium, zinc, aluminum, silver, iron, copper, an-timony, tin, magnesium, manganese, vanadium, boron and titanium.

The thenmoplastic molding materials according to the present invention are advantageously obtained by mixing the individual components at ~rom ~70 to 350~C in customary mixing apparatus, such as kneaders, Banbury mixers and single-screw extruders, but preferably using a twin-screw extruder. To obtain as homo~eneous a molding material as possible, thorough mixing is crucial. The order of addition of components can be varied, so that two or even three components may be premixed, but it is also possible to mix all the components together.
It is to be noted that the preparation of the molding materials may be accompanied by a reaction between the components A) to D), in particular between A) and B~, so that the end product no longer represents a pure mixture of these components.
2 ~ 3 - 18 - O.Z. 0050/42646 The molding materials according to the present invention are notable for excellent flame resistance properties but in particular for very high toughness.
They are suitable in paxticular for producing shaped articles by injection or extrusion molding, in particular for thermally stressed components in the automotive sector. In the latter sector it is of par-ticular advantage that the components produced from the molding materials according to the present invention retain toughness even at low temperatures.
