A containment for crude oil that inhibits paraffin deposition thereon is described. One to twenty coatings of a composition including a polyacrylate are applied to a crude oil contact surface of a crude oil containment; the polyacrylate includes at least about 50 mole % acrylic acid residues or the conjugate base thereof. The coating compositions are suitably delivered from a water dispersion, solution, or emulsion and dried before applying a subsequent coating. Each of the one to twenty coatings are formed from the same or from different polyacrylate coating compositions. The coated containment surfaces inhibit deposition of at least 10 wt % and as much as 90 wt % of paraffin solids from a crude oil compared to the same crude oil contact in the absence of the one to twenty coatings. The coatings inhibit paraffin deposition at temperatures between about 60° C. and −40° C.

Flame retardant thermoplastic compositions that are capable of being used in a laser direct structuring process. The compositions include a thermoplastic resin, a laser direct structuring additive, and a flame retardant. The compositions offer flame retardant characteristics while also substantially maintaining the mechanical properties of the base thermoplastic resin, such as the impact strength and/or HDT of the composition. The compositions can be used in a variety of applications such as personal computers, notebook and portable computers, cell phone and other such communications equipment.

Disclosed are a fire retardant thermoplastic resin composition suitable for preparing an electric wire, etc. by enhancing extrudability of a resin composition without hindering fire retardancy of the resin composition, and an electric wire comprising the same. The fire retardant thermoplastic resin composition comprises a matrix resin that comprises 20 to 35% by weight of a poly arylene ether resin, 20 to 35% by weight of a vinyl aromatic resin and 5 to 20% by weight of an olefin-based resin comprising a rubber ingredient, 1 to 10% by weight of a room-temperature liquid-type fire retardant, and 8 to 20% by weight of an ancillary fire retardant, based on 100% by weight of a mixture of a poly arylene ether resin, a vinyl aromatic resin, an olefin-based resin, a room-temperature liquid-type fire retardant and an ancillary fire retardant.
