Abstract
A thermoplastic acrylic resin composition is provided in which translucency properties are suitable for use as a top-sheet member of a photovoltaic cell, warping caused by temperature change is suppressed, and its weathering resistance is excellent; 0.1 to 50 parts by mass of a glass is contained in 100 parts by mass of the thermoplastic acrylic resin; an absolute value of a difference in refractive indices of the thermoplastic acrylic resin and the glass is 0.08 or lower; an average particle size of the glass is 100 to 2,000 μm; a softening temperature of the thermoplastic resin is 80° C. or higher; and the aspect ratio of the glass is 15 or greater. Also, a molded article which is obtained by molding the thermoplastic acrylic resin composition and has a YI value of 20 or lower after weathering-resistance testing. Further, a top-sheet member of a photovoltaic cell is made of the molded article.
