The resin composition for a platable substrate of the present invention comprises 100 parts by weight of a resin composition (C) comprising 10 to 60% by weight of a graft copolymer (A) prepared by graft polymerization of a rubbery polymer (A1) and a monomer component (A2) containing an aromatic alkenyl compound monomer unit (a) and a vinyl cyanide compound monomer unit (b) and 40 to 90% by weight of the other polymer (B) (provided that the total amount of the components (A) and (B) is 100% by weight), and 5 to 40 parts by weight of a phosphate ester flame retardant (D) having a molecular weight of more than 326 or 2 to 40 parts by weight of a red phosphorus flame retardant (D'). The resin composition for a platable substrate of the present invention is excellent in production stability such as moldability, dimensional stability, mechanical strength and plating properties, and is also environmentally friendly. Excellent plated parts having good thermal conductivity can be provided by forming a metal plating layer on a resin molded article obtained by molding the resin composition for a platable substrate using a plating treatment. The resulting plated parts are suitable for use as housings for laptop PC and portable devices.

Resin composition for plating substrate and resin molding using the same, and metal plated parts

A maleimide-based copolymer containing maleimide monomer units (a-1), aromatic vinyl monomer units (a-2) and other vinyl monomer units (a-3), wherein,

Maleimide-based copolymer and resin composition comprising the same

A resin composition, excellent in a physical property balance between chemical resistance and impact strength, obtained by mixing at least one graft copolymer selected from the group consisting of a graft copolymer in which a copolymer rubber of an alkyl acrylate and a conjugated diene is used, a graft copolymer in which a rubber prepared by seed rubber polymerizing an alkyl acrylate with a conjugated diene rubber is used and a graft copolymer in which a rubber prepared by seed rubber polymerizing an alkyl acrylate with a polyorganosiloxane rubber is used, with a graft copolymer in which a conjugated diene rubber is used, and optionally with a rigid thermoplastic resin.

Thermoplastic resin composition

Disclosed is an impact-resistant thermoplastic resin composition comprising (a) a graft copolymer (II) prepared by polymerizing a monomer or monomer mixture predominantly comprised of methyl methacrylate and/or styrene in the presence of an agglomerated rubber copolymer (I') latex, and (b) bent-resistant rigid thermoplastic resin (III) comprised of .alpha.-methylstyrene or a maleimide compound. The agglomerated rubber copolymer (I') is prepared by emulsion-polymerizing an alkyl acrylate/1,3-butadiene mixture, and then agglomerating the resulting rubbery copolymer. The agglomeration is effected by adding (a) an acid group-containing copolymer prepared by emulsion polymerizing an alkyl methacrylate/unsaturated monomer mixture, and/or (b) an oxy acid salt selected from alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, zinc, nickel and aluminum salts of oxy acids having as the center element an element selected from elements belonging to the second and third periods of groups IIIA through VIA of the Periodic Table.
