Abstract

Abstract A thermoplastic resin composition comprising: (A) from 10 to 90 parts by weight of an imide-modified polymer having an imido group and obtained by reacting ammonia and/or a primary amine to a copolymer prepared by the polymerization of a monomer mixture comprising from 50 to 70% by weight of an aromatic vinyl monomer and from 30 to 50% by weight of an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride; (B) from 10 to 90 parts by weight of a graft copolymer prepared by copolymerizing from 30 to 75% by weight of a mixture comprising from 40 to 80% by weight of a rubber-like polymer having a weight average particle size of from 0.3 to 0.6 mu m and from 20 to 60% by weight of a rubber-like polymer having a weight average particle size of from 0.1 to 0.2 mu m, with from 25 to 70% by weight of a monomer mixture comprising from 55 to 75% by weight of an aromatic vinyl monomer and from 25 to 45% by weight of a vinyl cyanide monomer, said rubber-like polymer being a butadiene polymer or a butadiene copolymer containing at least 50% by weight of butadiene; and (C) from 0 to 80 parts by weight of a copolymer prepared by polymerizing from 40 to 80% by weight of an aromatic vinyl monomer, from 0 to 40% by weight of a vinyl cyanide monomer and from 0 to 40% by weight of a vinyl monomer copolymerizable therewith.
