Abstract:
A halogen-free resin composition includes 100 to 250 parts by mass of metal hydroxide and 3 to 50 parts by mass of amorphous silica per 100 parts by mass of polyolefin-based resin as a base polymer. The amorphous silica has a specific gravity of 2.1 to 2.3 g/cm3 and a specific surface area of 15 to 50 m2/g. An electric wire includes a covering including the halogen-free resin composition. A cable includes the electric wire or a covering including the halogen-free resin composition.
