Modifier and use method thereof, modifier production method and carrier for additive

Abstract

Disclosed is a modifier that is blended with a polyolefin to obtain a molded body and methods for using the same and for producing the modifier. The modifier includes a continuous phase (A) containing a second polyolefin resin and a dispersed phase (B) containing a polyamide resin and a modified elastomer and composed of a melt-kneaded product of the polyamide resin and the modified elastomer, the modified elastomer is an elastomer having a reactive group that reacts with the polyamide resin, the elastomer is an olefin-based thermoplastic elastomer having, as a skeleton, a copolymer of ethylene or propylene and an α-olefin having 3-8 carbon atoms or a styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer having a styrene skeleton, and when a total of the continuous phase (A) and the dispersed phase (B) is taken as 100% by mass, a content of the dispersed phase (B) is 80% by mass or less.
