Abstract: A resin composition capable of laser marking according to the present invention includes a polyolefin resin in combination with a laser-sensitive component such as a carbon black or metallic compound white pigment and a dispersing aid such as a higher fatty acid compound. The polyolefin resin includes, for example, a polypropylene. The resin composition may further include about 0.5 to 30 parts by weight of an elastomer relative to 100 parts by weight of the polyolefin resin. By irradiating an surface of a molded article obtained from the resin composition with a laser, a mark having a sharp and uniform contrast can be formed on the surface of the molded article.

Abstract: Disclosed are a composition for use in sculpturing, which comprises a resin composition consisting essentially of a polyoctenamer resin and an inorganic filler, and a process for manufacturing a sculptured product comprising using a sculpturing material composition comprising a polyoctenamer resin.The composition for use in sculpturing can be not only molded at moderate temperature by hands and a trowel but also sculptured or shaved with a chisel or a boaster, and even polished with a rasp or a sandpaper.The composition can be made easier by mixing with an inorganic filler and said mixing provides excellent surface smoothness and massiveness effects in handling the sculptured products.

Abstract: Disclosed are a sculpturing resin composition which comprise comprising a polyoctenamer resin and a polyolefin copolymer and/or a modified polyolefin resin, and a process for sculpturing a sculptured product.The sculpturing composition has an excellent property of not shrinking even after elapse a long period of time, and is capable of being molded by hand at moderate temperatures, sculptured or shaved with a chisel, etc., and also being polished or ground with a rasp, etc., in comparison with conventional sculpturing materials.The anti-shrinking property of the polyoctenamer resin is found to be improved specifically by the mixing with a polyolefin copolymer and/or a modified polyolefin resin.

Abstract: A vibration damping sheet comprises two sheets of metal and an intermediate layer inserted between the two sheets of metal. The intermediate layer comprises a rubber composition comprising a butyl rubber, polyoctenylene and a copolymer of an olefin and an epoxy-containing acrylic ester.
