Abstract: An injection-molding method using an injection molding machine having a mold apparatus comprising(A) a fixed mold member,(B) a movable mold member movable in the mold opening and closing directions,(C) an intermediate mold member which is provided between the fixed mold member and the movable mold member and is slidable in the mold opening and closing directions between the fixed mold member and the movable mold member, and(D) at least one intermediate mold member sliding means for sliding the intermediate mold member in the mold opening and closing directions,the method including the steps ofinjecting a molten resin into a cavity formed of cavity wall surfaces of the fixed mold member, the intermediate mold member and the movable mold member, andincreasing the distance of the cavity by moving the movable mold member in the mold opening direction with keeping the intermediate mold member in intimate contact with the fixed mold member or the movable mold member by the intermediate mold member sliding means, an

Abstract: A process for the production of a molded article having a hollow structure, using an injection molding machine equipped with a mold apparatus having a mold provided with a cavity, said process comprising the steps of(a) positioning a plug in its forward end position in the cavity with a plug-moving means before a molten resin is injected,(b) moving the plug toward its backward end position nearly in parallel with a flow-axis direction of the molten resin, with the plug-moving means or under a pressure of the injected molten resin, after the injection of the molten resin is initiated,(c) introducing a pressurized fluid into the molten resin in the cavity through a pressurized fluid introducing portion while the plug is moving, and(d) moving the plug up to its backward end position nearly in parallel with the flow-axis direction of the molten resin with the plug-moving means or under the pressure of the molten resin and/or the pressurized fluid introduced into the molten resin, and then, cooling and solidifying

Abstract: A fiber-reinforced resin composition having surface smoothness, which comprises(1) 100 parts by weight of a thermoplastic resin composition comprising an aromatic polycarbonate resin and a thermoplastic polyester resin in a weight ratio of from 10/90 to 90/10,(2) from 50 to 100 parts by weight of glass fiber sheet chips having an almost rectangular shape, each side having a length of from 1 to 30 mm, the glass fiber sheet chips being obtained by forming E-glass fibers having an average fiber diameter of 2 .mu.m or less which have been surface-treated with a silane coupling agent, into a sheet by a paper making process and then cutting the resulting sheet, and(3) from 0 to 40 parts by weight of a thermoplastic elastomeric polymer,and an exterior automotive part showing excellent image clarity, obtained by shaping the fiber-reinforced resin composition.
