Polypropylene resin composition, method for producing the same, and foam molded article

Abstract

There is provided a polypropylene resin composition comprising a propylene polymer (A) containing 0 to 70% by mass of a propylene homopolymer (A-1) and 30 to 100% by mass of a propylene-ethylene block copolymer (A-2) defined below, an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (B) defined below, and an inorganic filler (C), wherein the proportion of the amount of the (A), the proportion of the amount of (B), and the proportion of the amount of (C) relative to the total amount of the (A), the (B) and the (C) are 40 to 94% by mass, 5 to 30% by mass, and 1 to 30% by mass, respectively, the propylene-ethylene block copolymer (A-2) is a mixture of a propylene homopolymer component and a propylene-ethylene random copolymer component, wherein the intrinsic viscosity, as measured in Tetralin of 135° C., of the propylene-ethylene random copolymer component is within the range of 2.0 to 8.0 dl/g, the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (B) is a copolymer of ethylene and an α-olefin having 4 to 20 carbon atoms, the copolymer having a density of 0.85 to 0.89 g/cmand a melt flow rate, as measured at 190° C. under a 2.16 kg load in accordance with JIS K7210, of more than 10 g/10 min and not more than 40 g/10 min.
