Abstract

Abstract A heat resistant thermoplastic resin composition is provided which comprises an iminated copolymer prepared by iminating a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing an aromatic vinyl monomer, maleic acid anhydride and a vinyl monomer copolymerizable with the aromatic vinyl monomer and maleic acid anhydride with the use of ammonia and/or a primary amine, and mixed with a graft polymer with or without a styrene base polymer.
