The present invention provides a laminate for automobile parts having a layer A made from a polyamide resin composition containing 70-99 wt % of (a) a specific polyamide polymer, and 1-30 wt % of (b-1) an ethylene copolymer containing an epoxy group and/or (b-2) an ethylene copolymer modified by an acid anhydride, and a layer B made from a resin composition containing (c-1) a polyethylene resin modified by an acid anhydride and/or (c-2) a polyethylene resin containing an epoxy group, wherein the layer A and the layer B are heat-sealed, except when (1) the layer A contains (b-1) alone as the ethylene copolymer and the layer B contains (c-2) alone as the polyethylene resin; and when (2) the layer A contains (b-2) alone as the ethylene copolymer and the layer B contains (c-1) alone as the polyethylene resin. The laminate of the present invention is superior in strength, stiffness and gasoline barrier property that the automobile parts are required to have.

Laminate for automobile parts

There is disclosed an inorganic reinforced polyamide resin compositions obtainable by melt kneading of (A) a crystalline polyamide rein, (B) a semi-aromatic amorphous polyamide resin, and (C) an inorganic reinforcing material, wherein the relative viscosity of 96% sulfuric acid solution of the composition is 2.1 or lower and wherein the crystallization temperature (TC ) of the composition as measured with a temperature drop by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is 180&deg; C. or lower. The inorganic reinforced polyamide resin composition can provide shaped articles having satisfactory strength and rigidity without deteriorating their appearances further having excellent coating properties and weathering resistance, and requires a mold temperature of 100&deg; C. or lower in the preparation of shaped articles.
