Abstract

Provided is a poly(alkylene carbonate) resin composition having superior low-temperature resistance, including: a) a poly(alkylene carbonate) resin prepared by copolymerization of carbon dioxide and at least one epoxide compound selected from the group consisting of (C2-C20)alkyleneoxide substituted or unsubstituted with halogen, (C1-C20)alkyloxy, (C6-C20)aryloxy, or (C6-C20)ar(C1-C20)alkyloxy; (C4-C20)cycloalkyleneoxide substituted or unsubstituted with halogen, (C1-C20)alkyloxy, (C6-C20)aryloxy or (C6-C20)ar(C1-C20)alkyoxy; and (C8-C20)styreneoxide substituted or unsubstituted with halogen, (C1-C20)alkyloxy, (C6-C20)aryloxy, (C6-C20)ar(C1-C20)alkyloxy, or (C1-C20)alkyl; and b) any one or two or more partially aromatic polyesters selected from polyester based on aliphatic and aromatic dicarboxylic acid and an aliphatic dihydroxy compound, and aliphatic polyesters prepared from aliphatic dicarboxylic acid and aliphatic diol.
