Lubricant for thermoplastic resin and thermoplastic resin composition

A fluoroacrylic polymer having a lubricating effect, which comprises at least one kind selected from units derived from a fluoroalkyl acrylate and units derived from a fluoroalkyl methacrylate as a part or all of structural units and a reducing viscosity .eta.Sp/C not higher than 2 as measured at 25.degree. C. with respect to a solution of 0.1 g of the polymer in 100 ml of chloroform. The fluoroacrylic polymer is incorporated into a thermoplastic resin for rendering an excellent lubricating property thereto.

Fluoroacrylic polymer having lubricating effect and thermoplastic resin

Disclosed is a thermoplastic resin composition of an enhanced impact strength comprising 100 parts by weight of a thermoplastic resin and 2 to 50 parts by weight of a graft copolymer (A) obtained by emulsion-graft-polymerizing a monomer mixture comprised of a major amount of an acrylic monomer and a minor amount of a monomer selected from aromatic vinyl monomers and vinyl cyanide monomers in the presence of 60 to 90% by weight (as solids), based on the weight of the graft copolymer (A), of a diene type rubber latex containing more than 50% by weight of a diene type rubber polymer having a weight average particle diameter of at least 0.3 .mu.m.
