Resin composition and resin molded body
A resin composition containing: a cellulose ester having at least two types of acyl groups; and an esterified starch.
1. A resin composition comprising:
cellulose acetate propionate; and
an esterified starch; wherein
the esterified starch is either
an esterified starch esterified with acetyl group and stearyl group that is present in an amount of 40 parts by mass to 50 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of a total amount of the cellulose acetate propionate and the esterified starch, or
an esterified starch esterified with propionyl group that is present in an amount of 40 parts by mass to 50 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of a total amount of the cellulose acetate propionate and the esterified starch;
an acyl group substitution degree of the cellulose acetate propionate is from 1.0 to 3.0;
a degree of esterification of the esterified starch is from 1.0 to 3.0;
the cellulose acetate propionate has a weight average polymerization degree of from 100 to 1,200;
the cellulose acetate propionate accounts for 50% by mass to 97% by mass of a total amount of resin components present in the resin composition; and
the esterified starch accounts for 3% by mass to 50% by mass of the total amount of resin components present in the resin composition.
2. A resin molded body comprising the resin composition according to claim 1 .
3. The resin molded body according to claim 2 , wherein the resin molded body is an injection molded body.
4. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein:
the esterified starch is the esterified starch esterified with acetyl group and stearyl group.
5. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein:
the esterified starch is the esterified starch esterified with propionyl group.
6. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of cellulose acetate propionate is from 50% by mass to 60% by mass of the total amount of resin components present in the resin composition.
7. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the esterified starch accounts for 5% by mass to 50% by mass of the total amount of resin components present in the resin composition.
8. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the esterified starch accounts for 20% by mass to 50% by mass of the total amount of resin components present in the resin composition.
