A molded propylene polymer product improved in flexural properties and/or impact resistance is prepared by a process comprising the steps of blending fibrous inorganic filler-containing pellets with a propylene polymer-containing matrix resin composition, in which the pellets comprises 35-80 wt. % of a fibrous inorganic filler, 1-45 wt. % of an olefin polymer, 5-45 wt. % of an elastomer, and 0.3-10.0 wt. % of a specific lubricant; kneading the blended product under molten condition; and molding the kneaded product.

Process for producing molded propylene polymer product containing fibrous inorganic filler

A molded fibrous basic magnesium sulfate filler-containing olefin polymer composition product is produced by a process comprising the steps of preparing a fibrous basic magnesium sulfate tiller-containing master batch composition which comprises an olefin polymer, a fibrous basic magnesium sulfate filler, an elastomer, a specific lubricant and a specific filler-surface treating agent; mixing the master batch composition and a propylene polymer-containing diluent resin; kneading the resulting mixture in a molten state; and molding the molten mixture to give the molded product.
