Additive for a thermoplastic resin, a process for producing the same, a thermoplastic resin composition, and a shaped article
View Patent ↗Disclosed is an additive for a thermoplastic resin, which provides a thermoplastic resin composition excellent in formability and also provides a shaped article excellent in surface appearance and flame retardance. The additive for a thermoplastic resin comprises tetrafluoroethylene polymer (A) and alkyl methacrylate polymer (B) containing 50% by mass or more of units of alkyl methacrylate having an alkyl group with carbon numbers of 2 to 6.
1. A thermoplastic resin composition comprising:
a thermoplastic resin and
an additive for the thermoplastic resin, wherein the additive comprises tetrafluoroethylene polymer (A) and alkyl methacrylate polymer (B) containing 50% by mass or more of units of i-butyl methacrylate.
2. The thermoplastic resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin is a polyolefin resin.
3. The thermoplastic resin composition according to claim 1 ,
further comprising a flame retardant.
4. The thermoplastic resin composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a phosphate salt flame retardant.
5. An article produced by shaping the thermoplastic resin composition according to claim 1 .
6. An article produced by shaping the thermoplastic resin composition of claim 1 by extrusion molding, injection molding, calendaring, blow molding, thermoforming, foaming, vacuum forming or melt spinning.
7. An article produced by shaping the thermoplastic resin composition of claim 1 selected from the group consisting of a sheet, film, material for a household appliance, automotive material, and covering material for an electric wire.
