Zusammenfassung:Aromatic thermoplastic compositions are provided having reduced total smoke released upon burning in accordance with ASTM-EO96. The aromatic thermplastic compositions utilize an effective amount of tin monoxide, and which are substantially free of antimony trioxide and brominated organic flame retardant resins. Minor amounts of polytetrafluoroethylene resin and glass fiber also contribute to the reduction of total smoke release upon burning of the thermoplastic polyester.
