Resin composition and a process for preparing same

Claim 1

A resin composition comprising: A. 1 to 98.9% by weight, based on the resin composition, of an aromatic copolyester comprising the reaction product in about equi-molar amounts of (1) terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid and/or the functional derivatives thereof, wherein the terephthalic acid unit/isophthalic acid unit molar ratio ranges from about 9:1 to about 1:9, and (2) a bisphenol of the following general formula ##STR9## wherein -X- represents a member selected from group consisting of -O-, -S-, -SO 2 -, -SO-, -CO-, and alkylene and alkylidene groups containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and each of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 1 ', R 2 ', R 3 ' and R 4 ' is selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom and an alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or a derivative thereof; B. 1 to 98.9% by weight, based on the resin composition, of a polyamide of the following general formula: ##STR10## wherein R 5 , R 6 and R 7 each represents an alkylene group containing 4 to 11 carbon atoms and n is an integer of from 30 to 500; and C. 0.1 to 98% by weight, based on the resin composition, of a polyalkylene phenylene ester or polyalkylene phenylene ester ether of the following formula: ##STR11## wherein R 8 , R 9 , R 10 and R 11 each represents a member selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a chlorine atom, a bromine atom and an alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms, m is an integer of from 1 to 10, n is an integer of from 30 to 500. Y is an ester unit or an ether unit.
