Abstract

Abstract Molding material, available for engineering plastics, comprising 95 to 20 % by weight of hydrolyzed ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and 5 to 80 % by weight of glass fiber. An ethylene content of the copolymer is 15 to 60 % by mole and the copolymer is hydrolyzed to the extent of more than 98 % by mole in vinyl acetate component. Moreover, the compounding of a viscosity modifier and a thermoplastic urethane resin is useful.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 65 words
A MOLDING MATERIAL CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF 95 TO 20% BY WEIGHT OF A COPOLYMER CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF ETHYLENE AND VINYL ACETATE WHICH HAS BEEN HYDROLYZED AND 5 TO 80% BY WEIGHT OF GLASS FIBER, SAID COPOLYMER HAVING ETHYLENE CONTENT OF 15 TO 60% BY MOLE AND BEING HYDROLYZED TO THE EXTENT OF AT LEAST 98% BY MOLE OF THE VINYL ACETATE COMPONENT OF THE COPOLYMER.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 65 words
A MOLDING MATERIAL CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF 95 TO 20% BY WEIGHT OF A COPOLYMER CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF ETHYLENE AND VINYL ACETATE WHICH HAS BEEN HYDROLYZED AND 5 TO 80% BY WEIGHT OF GLASS FIBER, SAID COPOLYMER HAVING ETHYLENE CONTENT OF 15 TO 60% BY MOLE AND BEING HYDROLYZED TO THE EXTENT OF AT LEAST 98% BY MOLE OF THE VINYL ACETATE COMPONENT OF THE COPOLYMER.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 167 words
The molding material of claim 1, in which a viscosity modifier is further blended with said molding material in an amount of 0.0001 to 0.5% by weight with said copolymer; said viscosity modifier being one capable of making the ratio of the melt viscosity of said copolymer after standing for 10 minutes at 230*C. to that after standing for 5 minutes at 230*C. fall in the range of 1.05 to 3.0, said viscosity member being selected from the group consisting of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, phosphorous acid, hypophosphorous acid, and boric acid; oxalic acid, citric acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, formic acid, itaconic acid, lactic acid, adipic acid and malic acid; disodium hydrogenphosphate, sodium dihydrogenphosphate, sodium hydrogenoxalate, potassium hydrogenphosphate and potassium hydrogenformate, titanium oxysulfate; chelate compounds of titanium and aluminum; chromium chloride, zirconium acetate; mono-, di- and tri-alkylphosphine, mono-, di- and tri-arylphosphine, mono- and di-alkylphosphonic acid, mono- and di-arylphosphonic acid; ethyl phosphite, diphenylisodecyl phosphite, phenyldiisodecyl phosphite, trioctadecyl phosphite, triisodecyl phosphite and ethyl phosphate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 38 words
The molding material of claim 2, wherein said viscosity modifier is at least one member selected from the group consisting of phosphorous acid, phosphoric acid, sodium dihydrogenphosphate, disodium hydrogenphosphate, sulfuric acid, citric acid, oxalic acid and diphenylisodecyl phosphite.
