The present invention provides a polyamide resin composition having high melt point which can produce a molded product having high anti-vibration property or, in other words, having very high resonance frequency and, in particular, being capable of retaining high resonance frequency even upon water absorption. A polyamide resin composition, comprising a polyamide resin (A) having melt point (Tm) of 290&#xb0; C. to 350&#xb0; C. and having crystallization temperature upon temperature rise (Tc) of 80 to 150&#xb0; C., and glass fibers (B) having cross-sectional area of 1.5 to 5.0&#xd7;10cm, characterized in that, ratio by weight of the polyamide resin (A) to the glass fibers (B) [(A):(B)] is from 20:80 to 35:65, and that the polyamide resin (A) is a copolymerized polyamide consisting of 55 to 75 molar % of a constituent unit (a) obtained from an equimolar salt of hexamethylenediamine and terephthalic acid, and 45 to 25 molar % of a constituent unit (b) obtained from 11-aminoundecanoic acid or undecane lactam.

Polyamide resin composition having high melt point and being excellent in anti-vibration property upon water absorption

The present invention provides a polyamide resin composition reinforced with glass fiber which can produce a molded product having high anti-vibration property or, in other words, having very high resonance frequency and having, upon necessity, excellent weather-resisting color fastness. A polyamide resin composition reinforced with glass fiber, comprising a polyamide resin (A) constituted from aliphatic polyamide (a1) and aromatic component-containing polyamide (a2), and glass fibers (B) having a cross-sectional area of 1.5 to 5.0&#xd7;10cm, wherein ratio by weight of the polyamide resin (A) to the glass fibers (B) [(A):(B)] is from 20:80 to 35:65 and ratio by weight of the aliphatic polyamide (a1) to the aromatic component-containing polyamide (a2) [(a1):(a2)] is from 5:95 to 95:5. The polyamide resin composition reinforced with glass fibers of the present invention can further comprise carbon black (C) in an amount of at most 5% by weight.
