Abstract: A thermoplastic elastomer composition which comprises (I) 99 to 1% by weight of a hydrogenated diene copolymer having a number average molecular weight of 50000 to 700,000 in which 80% or more of the double bonds of the conjugated diene portion of the conjugated diene polymer have been saturated, (II) 1 to 99% by weight of an ionomer resin having an .alpha.-olefin unit having 2 to 8 carbon atoms and an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid unit, at least part of the carboxyl group of said unsaturated carboxylic acid unit having been neutralized with a metal ion, and (III) 0 to 70% by weight of a polyolefin resin, provided that (I)+(II)+(III)=100% by weight. Said composition is excellent in moldability and gives a molded article excellent in transparency, flexibility, mechanical strength, heat resistance and impact resilience.

Abstract: A thermoplastic resin composition which comprises:(A) 45-90% by weight of a rubber-modified thermoplastic styrene resin in which the grafting degree is 40-150% by weight based on the weight of the rubbery polymer,(B) 9.5-54.5% by weight of an aromatic polyester having an intrinsic viscosity of 1.1-2 dl/g as measured at 25.degree. C. in o-chlorophenol, and(C) 0.1-20% by weight of a graft copolymer obtained by graft-copolymerizing a monomer mixture consisting of 60-80% by weight of an aromatic alkenyl compound and 20-40% by weight of an alkenyl cyanide compound on a copolymer consisting essentially of an olefin unit and an epoxy group-containing unsaturated compound unit, and(D) optionally a silicone lubricant in a proportion of 5-20,000 ppm of the total weight of the (A), (B) and (C) components.
