Abstract

The present invention provides a polypropylene resin composition including a polypropylene resin having a melt flow rate of 4-18 g/10 minutes, a flame retardant additive having a low melting point, an antimony oxide, a UV stabilizer, a silane coupling agent, and titanium dioxide as a light-blocking agent. The resin composition of the invention produces products exhibiting excellent flame retarding properties, stability against weather, and maintainability of physical/mechanical properties as shown by maintaining the original flame retarding properties after long periods of outdoor exposure and hydrothermal dipping treatments.
