Abstract: A polyphenylene ether resin composition containing (A) 100 parts by weight of a polyphenylene-ether-base resin composed of 100-60 wt. % of a polyphenylene ether resin and 0-40 wt. % of a polystyrene resin and (B) 1-40 parts by weight of a dicarboxylic acid ester copolymer obtained from a vinyl monomer and an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid ester as copolymerizable components. The dicarboxylic acid ester copolymer has a weight average molecular weight not greater than 60,000. The polyphenylene ether resin composition, if necessary, can further comprise (C) 1-40 parts by weight of conductive carbon or an A-B-A' type or A-B'-B" type block copolymer elastomer. Owing to its excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance and moldability, the resin composition is useful in the fields of automotive vehicles, home electronic or electric appliances and industrial parts or components.

Abstract: A conductive resin composition which has electrical conductivity and antistatic property, is excellent in heat resistance and processability, and comprises:(A) from 50 to 95% by weight of a polyphenylene ether resin,(B) from 50 to 5% by weight of a copolymer of a styrenic compound and an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated dicarboxylic acid imide compound,(C) from 5 to 30 parts by weight of a conductive carbon per 100 parts by weight of the sum of the resin (A) and the copolymer (B), and (D) from 1 to 20 parts by weight of a low molecular weight polystyrene per 100 parts by weight of the sum of the resin (A) and the copolymer (B).

Abstract: A molding material for electroconductive IC parts is here provided which has a preferable heat distortion temperature (heat resistance) and a desirable melt flow index (moldability) and which supplies molded articles having a suitable surface specific resistance. The above-mentioned molding material comprises 50% by weight or more of a polyphenylene ether resin, electroconductive carbon, an acid imide compound which can be used depending upon an intrinsic viscosity of the polyphenylene ether resin, a high-impact polystyrene resin and an A--B--A' type block copolymer elastomer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a polypropylene sheet obtained by forming a resin composition, which contains a polypropylene resin and a hydrogenated petroleum resin in specific amounts, into a sheet at a particular chill-roll temperature and then annealing the sheet at a specific temperature for a specific period of time as well as an improved production process of such a polypropylene sheet. Also disclosed is a polypropylene sheet comprising a sheet obtained from the above resin composition and a polypropylene layer of at least 10 .mu.m thick applied on at least one side of the sheet. A polypropylene resin composition suitable for the production of such polypropylene sheets is also disclosed. The above polypropylene sheets are suitable for use in press-through packages.
