Abstract: The resin composition production method includes a step in which a cellulose fiber composition containing 5 to 45 parts by mass of water with respect to a total of 100 parts by mass of cellulose fibers (A) and an acrylic resin and/or a styrene acrylic resin (B) is kneaded with a thermoplastic resin (C), and water is removed until the water content after kneading falls to 1% or less. The resin composition production method is also characterized in that: 20 parts by mass or more and 200 parts by mass or less of the resin (B) is blended with respect to 100 parts by mass of the cellulose fibers (A), the dissolution amount of the resin (B) in 100 g of water at 25° C. is less than 1 g, and the glass transition temperature of the resin (B) is 40 to 150° C.

Abstract: An aluminium alloy made of consolidated rapid-quenched aluminium alloy powder by using an improved metallurgical method basically comprises, by weight percent, less than 30% silicone, less than 8% iron, less than 7% copper and less than 0.2% oxygen, the balance being substantially aluminium. The consolidated rapid-quenched aluminium alloy powder has features that it contains less than 0.2% oxygen, and the material made from the rapid-quenched aluminium alloy powder has a high limit compressibility factor, rate of reduction and tensile strength. Thus the aluminium alloy material obtained is suitable for structural members such as pistons for internal combustion engines.
