Abstract: Disclosed is a polypropylene resin composition comprising from 50 to 95 wt. % of propylene homopolymer component (A) and from 5 to 50 wt. % of ethylene-?-olefin copolymer component (B1), the polypropylene resin composition having a melt index of not less than 40 g/10 min but less than 500 g/10 min, provided that the percentages by weight are based on the combined weight of the components (A) and (B1), wherein the homopolymer component (A) has an intrinsic viscosity [?]A of from 0.5 to 1.4 dl/g, and wherein the ratio of the intrinsic viscosity [?]B1 of the copolymer component (B1) to the intrinsic viscosity [?]A of the homopolymer component (A), [?]B1/[?]A, is from 0.5 to 3. This composition may be modified by addition of a resin component selected from the group consisting of ethylene homopolymer and aromatic vinyl compound-containing rubber. These components are advantageously used for injection foam molding.
