Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a polycarbonate resin composition and a molded article, which are excellent in jet-blackness, image sharpness, impact resistance, scratch resistance owing to high hardness, flame retardancy and heat retention stability. The present invention provides a resin composition comprising a polycarbonate resin comprising a structural unit derived from a cyclic ether structure-containing dihydroxy compound and a coloring agent, which is a polycarbonate resin composition having an L* value of 6 or less as measured by the reflected light method of JIS K7105; and a molded article using the resin composition. The resin composition and the molded article of the present invention can be used over a wide range of fields allowing a product to be imparted with a high-grade appearance and a dignified impression.

Abstract: A resin composition for metal plating provides a molded article exhibiting excellent metal plating adhesion strength and chemical resistance, while having excellent productivity. A metal-plated molded article can also be made from such a resin composition. The resin composition for metal plating includes 50-90% by mass of Component (A) and 10-50% by mass of Component (B), the total of Component (A) and Component (B) being 100% by mass, wherein Component (A) is a polypropylene resin, and Component (B) is a rubber-reinforced vinyl resin obtained by polymerizing a vinyl monomer in the presence of a rubber-like polymer, or a mixture of the rubber-reinforced vinyl resin and a (co)polymer of the vinyl monomer. The composition may further include 0.5-30 parts by mass of a compatibilizer (C) per 100 parts by mass of the total of Component (A) and Component (B). Component (B) is preferably a non-diene rubber-reinforced resin.

Abstract: A hydrophilic resin composition comprising a water-absorptive resin (component A), a thermoplastic modified ethylene polymer (component B), and, if desired, a thermoplastic polymer (component C) which is different from the component B, the water-absorptive resin (component A) being present in an amount of 0.1 to 70% by weight of the total amount of the components A to C, the component A being uniformly dispersed in the thermoplastic polymers (components B+C), in the form of particles having an average particle diameter of 5 .mu.m or less.A process for producing a hydrophilic resin composition, comprising kneading a water-absorptive resin containing water (component A) whose water content is 25 to 80% by weight to obtain a rubber-like resin, incorporating a modified ethylene polymer (component B), and, if desired, a thermoplastic polymer (component C) and an additive (component D) into the rubber-like resin, and melt kneading the mixture.

Abstract: The amount of impurities contained in a modified polyolefin obtained by means of melt-kneading grafting is reduced by melt-kneading the modified polyolefin in the presence of water. A melt-kneading machine having a vent port is typically used in this process.
