Abstract

Abstract A novel three-component type acrylic resin composition comprising a C3-C8 alkyl ester of acrylic acid, methyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate in a specific ratio. Such composition can be readily molded into a shaped article which is excellent in solvent resistance even upon being fabricated. The composition of the present invention is also featured by its good heat distortion temperature and mechanical strength, as compared to the conventional acrylic resin composition.
