This invention has an object to provide: a resin composition excellent in impact resistance, flexibility, and recyclability obtained as a result of blending a specific ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition with a brittle resin, a recycled resin, or a composite resin including two or more kinds of different resins mixed therein; and a molded article produced with use of the resin composition. The resin composition includes: a thermoplastic resin (A) in an amount of not less than 1 weight % and not more than 99 weight %; and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition (B) in an amount of not less than 1 weight % and not more than 99 weight %, the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer composition (B) including two or more kinds of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers having different vinyl acetate contents, the total amount of (A) and (B) being 100 weight %.

Resin composition and molded article obtained using this resin composition

An object of this invention is to provide a resin composition usable as a modifier with which the brittleness of a plastic material including a plurality of resins, such as a laminate of different kinds of materials collected for recycling, can be overcome and the impact resistance and elongation at break can be enhanced. Provided is a resin composition (A) including the following components (1) and (2): (1) a composition (a1) including at least two kinds of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers having different vinyl acetate contents; and (2) a copolymer (a2) that is at least one copolymer selected from an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer and an ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer.
