Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 200 words
(1) A polyamide composition which comprises, based on the combined amounts of components - (a), (b) and (c), (a) 60 to 90% by weight of polyamide, (b) 2 to 36% by weight of at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of (i) a hydrogenated block copolymer comprising a vinyl aromatic polymer block A and an olefin polymer block B, the degree of unsaturation of said block B not exceeding 20%; and (ii) an ethylene-containing polymer, and (c) 2 to 36% by weight of a modified block copolymer formed by bonding a molecular unit containing a carboxylic acid group or its derivative group to said block copolymer, the amount of said molecular unit containing a carboxylic acid group or its derivative group bonded to the modified block copolymer of (c), expressed in terms of x parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the block copolymer before modification, and the compounding ratio of said modified block copolymer of (c) to the sum of the weight of the modified block copolymer of (c) and the weight of the at least one polymer of (b), expressed in terms of y, being within the range specified by the expression , and
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 20 words
