A thermoplastic resin composition comprising (A) 45 to 99% by weight of a graft copolymer obtained by special graft polymerization of a monomer (b) such as an aromatic vinyl compound, a methacrylic ester, etc. in the presence of grafted polymer rubber (a), and (B) 55 to 1% by weight of a thermoplastic aromatic polyester resin can yield shaped articles excellent in impact resistance, chemical resistance, etc. with excellent processability.

Thermoplastic resin composition and molded articles obtained therefrom

A grafted copolymer containing low cis-polybutadiene having a Mooney viscosity of 30 to 40 as a rubber component, and 30% by volume or more of particles of said rubber component becoming non-spherical rubber particles when molded into a molded article, is suitable for use as a low gloss agent which is usable in the fields of internal and external automotive trims, exterior parts of household electric appliances, etc.

Low gloss agents, process for production thereof, low gloss

An impact modifier obtained by emulsion polymerizing acrylic monomer(s), etc., in the presence of a conjugated diene rubber to give a graft rubber polymer, or obtained by polymerizing acrylic monomer(s) and the like ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of the graft rubber polymer, is effective for improving impact resistance and weathering resistance of molded articles obtained from thermoplastic resin compositions containing such an impact modifier.

Impact modifier, thermoplastic resin composition using the same and

A grafted copolymer containing low cis-polybutadiene having a Mooney viscosity of 30 to 40 as a rubber component, and 30% by volume or more of particles of said rubber component becoming non-spherical rubber particles when molded into a molded article, is suitable for use as a low gloss agent which is usable in the fields of internal and external automotive trims, exterior parts of household electric applicances, etc.
