Abstract

Provided is a thermoplastic resin composition, in particular, an aliphatic polyester resin composition comprising a plasticizer which is soft, exhibits high transparency, is reduced in bleeding out and exhibits high resistance to the extraction by a paraffinic solvent; and a sheet, a film or a molded article formed from the thermoplastic resin composition. An aliphatic polyester resin composition, characterized in that it comprises 100 parts by mass of an aliphatic polyester and, as a plasticizer, 1.0 to 100 parts by mass of a specific ester compound which is an ester formed from a trivalent polyhydric alcohol and an acyl group derived from a carboxylic acid having 2 to 18 carbon atoms and has an average acylation degree of 50 to 90%.

Claims (3)

1. An aliphatic polyester resin composition contains a compound (A) of 1.0 mass part to 100 mass parts expressed by the following formula (1) as a plasticizer to an aliphatic polyester of 100 mass parts, wherein said aliphatic polyester resin is a lactic acid polyester,

in the formula, X denotes a trivalent polyalcohol frame; R 1 , R 2 , R 3 are selected from an acyl group having 2 to 18 carbon atoms or a hydrogen atom; and where R 1 , R 2 , R 3 contain at least one acyl group having 8 to 18 carbon atoms, the sum total of carbon numbers of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 is 10 to 22; and the average acylation rate is 55 to 90% to obtain high solvent resistance to a paraffin system solvent.

2. Sheets, films, or products molded from the aliphatic polyester resin composition described in claim 1 .
