Resin composition and molded product obtained therefrom
A resin composition includes a polyester capable of forming a crystal structure, at least one member selected from uracil and a uracil derivative used as a nucleating agent. A resin molding obtained from the composition is also provided.
1. A resin composition comprising, at least, a polyester capable of forming a crystal structure wherein said polyester consists of polylactic acid, and a nucleating agent, said nucleating agent consisting of a member selected from the group consisting of uracil and uracil derivatives; and a hydrolysis inhibitor for said polyester.
2. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein said member consists of uracil.
3. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein said member consists of a uracil derivative.
4. The resin composition according to claim 3 , wherein said uracil derivative consists of 6-methyluracil.
5. A resin molding obtained from a resin composition which comprises, at least, polylactic acid, at least one of uracil and a uracil derivative, and a hydrolysis inhibitor for said polylactic acid.
6. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of said nucleating agent is in a range from 0.001 part by weight to 10 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of polylactic acid.
7. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a particle size of the nucleating agent is at about 0.5 μm or below.
