The present invention provides a thermoplastic resin composition characterized by comprising (A) a thermoplastic resin and (B) a white pigment in a mass ratio of 50:50 to 90:10 and further comprising (C) a black coloring material and a blue coloring material; and provides a formed article using the resin composition. The above thermoplastic resin composition is an improvement of the conventional technique for preventing the permeation of light from a thin part of the formed article while securing a satisfactory reflectance, and can markedly improve the light blocking effect of a thermoplastic resin composition, without the increase of the number of parts, the employment of a more complicated process, or the like.

Thermoplastic resin composition and formed article using the same

A thermoplastic resin composition which comprises (A) 40 to 98 mass % thermoplastic resin and (B) 60 to 2 mass % titanium oxide particles whose surface has been coated with a hydrous oxide and/or oxide of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of aluminum, silicon, zirconium, tin, cerium, titanium, and zinc, wherein the titanium oxide particles contain 80 to 97 mass %, excluding 97 mass %, titanium oxide ingredient and have total content of alkali metal cations and alkaline earth metal cations extractable with pure water of 120 mass ppm or lower. The resin composition is excellent in reflectance and thermal stability in residence during molding into large products.

Titanium oxide for incorporation into thermoplastic resin composition, thermoplastic resin composition, and molded object thereof

The present invention provides a light diffusing polycarbonate resin composition including a polycarbonate resin containing a polycarbonate copolymer which comprises a repeating unit represented by the general formula (I) shown below and a repeating unit represented by the general formula (II) shown below, which has a content of the repeating units of the general formula (II) of 1 to 30% by mass and which has a viscosity value of 30 to 71, and (B) a light diffusing agent compounded therein in an amount of 0.01 to 10 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the polycarbonate resin. The light diffusing polycarbonate resin composition and a light diffusing plate thereof show improved fluidity during molding and have excellent heat resistance, dimensional stability, luminance and color tone.

Light-diffusing polycarbonate resin composition and light diffuser plate comprising the resin composition

A polycarbonate resin composition comprising polycarbonate resin (A) and, blended therewith per 100 parts by mass thereof, 0.001 to 0.1 part by mass of arylphosphine (B) and 0.01 to 1.0 part by mass of alicyclic epoxy compound (C); or a polycarbonate resin composition comprising polycarbonate resin (A) and, blended therewith per 100 parts by mass thereof, 0.001 to 0.1 part by mass of arylphosphine (B), 0.01 to 1.0 part by mass of alicyclic epoxy compound (C) and 0.01 to 1.0 part by mass of acrylic resin (D). The polycarbonate resin composition exhibits excellent optical properties, excelling in resistance to high temperature high humidity, resistance to heat aging (especially high temperature aging), heat resistance and impact resistance, and is suitable for production of optical parts, such as a lens of optical semiconductor device mounted on vehicles which can be used even in especially severe environment. There is further provided an optical part molded from the polycarbonate resin composition.
