Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 193 words
A thermoplastic resin molding composition affording a delustered shaped article which comprises (A) a rubber-modified copolymer obtained by polymerizing two or three kinds of monomers selected from the group consisting of aromatic vinyl compounds, vinyl cyanides and alkyl unsaturated carboxylates in the presence of at least one of rubbers and (B) an epoxy group-containing olefin polymer comprising units of at least one of unsaturated epoxy compounds and units of at least one of olefins, said monomers consisting of 50 to 80% by weight aromatic vinyl compounds and 50 to 20% by weight vinyl cyanides and/or alkyl unsaturated carboxylates, said aromatic vinyl compounds being selected from the group consisting of styrene, α-methylstyrene, methyl-α-methylstyrene vinyltoluene and monochlorostyrene, said vinyl cyanides being selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile and methacrylonitrile, said alkyl unsaturated carboxylates being selected from the group consisting of alkyl acrylates, alkyl methacrylates, hydroxyalkyl acrylates and hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, said rubbers being selected from the group consisting of polybutadiene, styrene/butadiene copolymer, acrylonitrile/butadiene copolymer, ethylene/propylene copolymer, ethylene/propylene/non-conjugated diene copolymer, ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer, chlorinated polyethylene, and polyalkyl acrylate, wherein the weight proportion of the rubber-modified copolymer (A) and the epoxy group-containing olefin polymer (B) is 100:0.1-40.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 193 words
