Abstract A polyolefin resin composition which is suitable mainly for affording superior processing properties of sheet and little in the variation of flowability at hot processing temperatures is provided. The composition comprises (A) a resin mixture comprising a polypropylene resin and a polyethylene resin, the respective percentages by weight of these resins in the mixture being specified, (B) a polyolefin resin modified with a polymerizable unsaturated carboxylic acid, its salt or its ester by graft polymerization and (C) finely divided vegetable fibers, the ratio of (A) to (B) and the content of (C) in the composition being both specified. Further an agent (D) may be added to the composition, such as petroleum resin, rosin, rosin-like resin, plasticizer or inorganic filler.
A polyolefin resin composition comprising: (a) a resin mixture comprising 50 to 90% by weight of a block copolymer of propylene containing at most 40% by weight of ethylene or butene and 8 to 50% by weight of a high density polyethylene resin, each based on the weight of said resin mixture; (b) a modified polyolefin resin obtained by graft-polymerizing at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of polymerizable unsaturated carboxylic acids, their salts and their esters; and (c) finely divided vegetable fibers, the ratio by weight of (a) to (b) being in the range of 55:45 to 99:1, and the content of (c) being in the range of 15 to 70% by weight based on the dry weight of the fibers and based on the weight of the composition.
