Abstract

This disclosure is to provide an automobile interior component formed of a reinforced polyphenylene ether-based resin composition, which is excellent in both urethane adhesion and in appearance after molding, mechanical properties such as tensile strength, bending strength and the like, and resident molding stability; and further has sufficient molding fluidity. Provided is an automobile interior component formed of a reinforced polyphenylene ether-based resin composition, containing a polyphenylene ether (A) whereof the reduced viscosity (chloroform solvent, measured at 30° C.) in the molded product is 0.30 to 0.45 dl/g, a styrene resin (B) and a glass fiber (C), where the content of the component (A) is 10 to 30 mass %, the content of the component (B) is 40 to 85 mass %, and the content of the component (C) is 5 to 30 mass % with respect to 100 mass % in total of the components (A) to (C).

Claims (6)

1. An automobile interior component formed of a reinforced polyphenylene ether-based resin composition, comprising: a polyphenylene ether (A) whereof the reduced viscosity in the molded product (chloroform solvent, measured at 30° C.) is 0.30 to 0.45 dl/g; a styrene-based resin (B) selected from polystyrene, high impact polystyrene (HIPS), and a mixture thereof; and a glass fiber (C), wherein

the content of the component (A) is 10 to 30 mass%, the content of the component (B) is 50 to 85 mass%, and the content of the component (C) is 5 to 30 mass%, in 100 mass% in total of the components (A) to (C),

wherein the number of terminal OH groups of the polyphenylene ether of the component (A) in the molded product is 100 to 200 μmol/g.

2. The automobile interior component formed of the reinforced polyphenylene ether-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the component (C) is a glass fiber sized with a urethane sizing agent.

3. The automobile interior component formed of the reinforced polyphenylene ether-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the automobile interior component is an instrument panel component.

4. The automobile interior component formed of the reinforced polyphenylene ether-based resin composition according to claim 2 , wherein the automobile interior component is an instrument panel component.
