Abstract

A composition includes a 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer in which at least one or more temperatures showing a local maximum value of a loss tangent (tan δ) are present in a range of 10° C. or higher and 100° C. or lower, and the local maximum value of the loss tangent is 0.5 or more and 3.5 or less, and an organic compound, in which a content of the organic compound is 5 to 250 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer, and the organic compound has a viscosity (mPa·s) in a range of 65 to 120, or a ratio between a melt flow rate (g/10 min.) of the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based copolymer and a melt flow rate (g/10 min.) of the organic compound is 1:1.0 to 0.1.

Claims (34)

wherein a content of the organic compound (b) is 5 to 250 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer (a), and

the organic compound (b) has a viscosity (mPa·s) in a range of 65 to 120, or a ratio between a melt flow rate (g/10 min.) of the 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer (a) and a melt flow rate (g/10 min.) of the organic compound (b) is 1:1.0 to 0.1.

2 . A composition comprising:

a 4-methyl-1-pentene-based polymer (a) in which at least one or more temperatures showing a local maximum value of a loss tangent (tan δ), which is obtained by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement under conditions of a temperature rising rate of 4° C./min, a frequency of 1.59 Hz, and a strain amount of 0.1%, are present in a range of 10° C. or higher and 100° C. or lower, and the local maximum value of the loss tangent is 0.5 or more and 3.5 or less; and
