Abstract A blow-molded article made from a polyphenylene ether/polyamide composition reinforced with glass fibers is provided. The article is excellent in mechanical properties and blow moldability. The composition comprises a mixture consisting of (A) 10-65 parts by weight of a polyphenylene ether and (B) 90-35 parts by weight of a polyamide and, on the basis of 100 parts by weight of said mixture, (C) 10-100 parts by weight of a glass fiber, (D) 1-35 parts by weight of a polyolefin and (E) 0.01-10 parts by weight of an unsaturated polar monomer compound having in its molecule both (a) carbon-carbon double bond or carbon-carbon triple bond and (b) carboxyl group, acid anhydride group, amino group, acid amide group, imide group, epoxy group, carboxylic acid ester group, isocyanate group, methylol group or hydroxyl group as a compatibilizing agent, amounts of (C), (D) and (E) being based on 100 parts by weight of [(A)+(B)].
A blow-molded article made from a thermoplastic resin composition which comprises a mixture consisting of (A) 10-65 parts by weight of a polyphenylene ether and (B) 90-35 parts by weight of a polyamide, (C) 10-100 parts by weight of a glass fiber, (D) 3-20 parts by weight of a polyolefin and (E) 0.01-10 parts by weight of an unsaturated polar monomer compound having in its molecule simultaneously (a) carbon-carbon double bond or carbon-carbon triple bond and (b) carboxyl group, acid anhydride group, amino group, acid amide group, imide group, epoxy group, carboxylic acid ester group, isocyanate group, methylol group or hydroxyl group as a compatibilizing agent, said amounts of (C), (D) and (E) are respectively on the basis of 100 parts by weight of a mixture of (A) and (B), wherein said thermoplastic resin composition has a critical parison length of 450 to 550 mm when it is blow-molded using a 50 mm φ blow-molding machine at an extrusion rate of 170 g/minute and at a temperature of 270° C.
