Abstract
Moldable weather-resistant polyacetal resin compositions exhibiting low surface gloss characteristics are a melt-blend of (A) 100 parts by weight of a polyacetal base resin, (B) between 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a weather stabilizer, and (C) a surface gloss reducing effective amount of between 1 to 50 parts by weight of a core-shell polymer having a rubbery polymer as the core and a glassy vinyl copolymer having at least one oxygenic polar group as the shell. Molded articles formed of such polyacetal compositions exhibit weather-resistance properties and a reduced surface gloss of at least 35%. Moreover, the ability to imprint a grain-like appearance on the surfaces of the molded articles is enhanced.
