Abstract

Abstract A thermoplastic resin composition consists essentially of from 10 to 95 parts by weight of a methyl methacrylate resin and from 90 to 5 parts by weight of a styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer resin with or without from 5 to 150 parts by weight of a polycarbonate resin. A molded product from the composition has a beautiful, pearlescent luster and a high impact strength.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 108 words
A thermoplastic resin composition which consists essentially of from 10 to 95 parts by weight of a methyl methacrylate resin containing at least 80% by weight of methyl methacrylate, from 90 to 5 parts by weight of a styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer resin having a weight ratio of styrene/methyl methacrylate of from 80/20 to 70/30 and a reduced viscosity of from 0.5 to 3.5 dl/g in a 1% chloroform solution at 25° C. and a polycarbonate resin, the polycarbonate resin being present in an amount of from 5 to 150 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the methyl methacrylate resin and the styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 108 words
A thermoplastic resin composition which consists essentially of from 10 to 95 parts by weight of a methyl methacrylate resin containing at least 80% by weight of methyl methacrylate, from 90 to 5 parts by weight of a styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer resin having a weight ratio of styrene/methyl methacrylate of from 80/20 to 70/30 and a reduced viscosity of from 0.5 to 3.5 dl/g in a 1% chloroform solution at 25° C. and a polycarbonate resin, the polycarbonate resin being present in an amount of from 5 to 150 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the methyl methacrylate resin and the styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 44 words
A composition according to claim 1, wherein the methyl methacrylate resin is a homopolymer of methyl methacrylate or a copolymer of not less than 80% by weight of methyl methacrylate with acrylonitrile, N-allylmaleimide, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate or butyl acrylate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 45 words
A composition according to claim 2, wherein the styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer resin is the one having a weight ratio of styrene/methyl methacrylate of from 70/30 to 35/65, and a reduced viscosity of from 0.6 to 3.0 dl/g in a 1% chloroform solution at 25° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A composition according to claim 2, wherein the polycarbonate resin is the one obtained from 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenylalkane and phosgene, ethyl formate or diethyl carbonate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 24 words
A molded product having a beautiful, pearlescent luster and a high impact strength obtained from the thermoplastic resin composition as claimed in claim 1.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
A composition according to claim 1, wherein the methyl methacrylate resin is a homopolymer of methyl methacrylate or a copolymer of methyl methacrylate with a vinyl monomer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 14 words
A composition according to claim 1, wherein said methyl methacrylate resin is a homopolymer.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 16 words
A composition according to claim 1, wherein said methyl methacrylate resin contains about 97% methyl methacrylate.
