Abstract

Abstract A thermoplastic resin composition is provided which comprises 10 to 90 wt % of an iminated copolymer prepared by reacting ammonia and/or a primary amine with a graft copolymerization product obtained by graft-copolymerizing a rubber-like polymer with a monomer mixture containing an aromatic vinyl monomer and an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride and 10 to 90 wt % of a graft-copolymer obtained by graft-copolymerizing a rubber-like polymer with a monomer mixture containing an aromatic vinyl monomer and/or a polymer obtained by polymerizing an aromatic vinyl monomer.
