To provide a flame retardant polyolefin resin composition with an excellent flame
retardancy and enabling the preparation of a molded product free from soapiness,
a flame retardant polyolefin resin composition contains (A) 100 parts by mass of
a polyolefin resin, (B) 10 to 60 parts by mass of melamine polyphosphate and (C)
10 to 60 parts by mass of a carbonizing agent, wherein the compounding ratio of
the component (B) to the component (C) (mass ratio) is in a range from 0.5 to 4.5,
and optionally further includes (D) 1 to 30 parts by mass of a carbonizing promoter.
