Abstract: There is provided a molded article containing an amorphous resin, wherein a peak position change rate r (%) of the molded article defined by Equation: Peak position change rate r (%)=100×(Q1?Q2)/Q2 is 1 or more. In the equation, Q1 and Q2 are peak positions (nm?1) of the molded article and a predetermined reference molded article, respectively, the peak position being determined by a wide angle X-ray diffraction method. The peak position is a peak derived from the amorphous resin in a scattering vector magnitude Q-intensity profile calculated from a diffraction image obtained by a transmission method and measured by the wide angle X-ray diffraction method and obtained after background correction and transmittance correction, and the peak position is a value of Q at a peak at which Q is the smallest among peaks at which Q is in a range of 5 nm?1 to 25 nm?1.

Abstract: In order to provide a methacrylic resin composition that maintains all of physical properties such as excellent solvent resistance, heat resistance, mechanical strength, and stringing resistance, and has particularly excellent fluidity and also heat stability, the present invention provides a methacrylic resin composition that satisfies conditions (I) through (IV) and includes two types of methacrylic resins having mutually different peak molecular weights. (I) The weight ratio of methyl methacrylate units in the methacrylic resin is greater than 98.5 wt % with respect to 100 wt % of all monomer units. (II) The HP value indicating the higher peak molecular weight satisfies the expression 180,000?HP?220,000. (III) The LP value indicating the lower peak molecular weight satisfies the expression 24,000?LP?35,000.
