Abstract

An electrically conductive resin composition of a polyamide type, characterized in that, (A) 95 to 40% by mass of polyamide resin, (B) 5 to 30% by mass of electrically conductive carbon black, (C) 10 to 40% by mass of an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer having a reactive functional group which is able to react with a terminal group of the polyamide resin and/or an amide group of the main chain and (D) 1 to 10% by mass of a high-density polyethylene resin are compounded; the polyamide resin (A) forms a continuous phase; the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (C) in particles having an average particle diameter of not more than 2 μm is present by being dispersed in the continuous phase of the polyamide resin (A); and not less than 80% by mass of the electrically conductive carbon black (B) is present by being dispersed in the polyamide resin phase (A) which is a continuous phase, as well as a cap for fuel tank comprising it.

Claims (8)

1. A cap for fuel tank, wherein the cap comprises an electrically conductive resin composition of a polyamide type, the electrically conductive resin composition comprising the following components compounded:

a polyamide resin (A) forming a continuous phase,

electrically conductive carbon black (B), wherein not less than 80% by mass of the electrically conductive carbon black (B) is dispersed in the continuous phase of the polyamide resin,

particles of an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (C) having a reactive functional group which is able to react with a terminal group of the polyamide resin and/or an amide group of the main chain of the polyamide resin, wherein the particles of the ethylene-α-olefin copolymer (C) have an average particle diameter of not more than 2 μm and are dispersed in the continuous phase of the polyamide resin (A), and

a high-density polyethylene resin (D).

2. The cap for fuel tank according to claim 1 , wherein a molded product obtained from the electrically conductive resin composition has volume intrinsic resistivity of not more than 1×10 11 Ω.cm and Izod impact strength of not less than 300 j/m.

3. The cap for fuel tank according to claim 1 , wherein the molded product obtained from the electrically conductive resin composition has a Taber's abrasion value of not more than 25 mg.

4. The cap for fuel tank according to claim 2 , wherein the molded product obtained for the electrically conductive resin composition has a Taber's abrasion value of not more than 25 mg.
