Abstract: A resin composition for metal plating provides a molded article exhibiting excellent metal plating adhesion strength and chemical resistance, while having excellent productivity. A metal-plated molded article can also be made from such a resin composition. The resin composition for metal plating includes 50-90% by mass of Component (A) and 10-50% by mass of Component (B), the total of Component (A) and Component (B) being 100% by mass, wherein Component (A) is a polypropylene resin, and Component (B) is a rubber-reinforced vinyl resin obtained by polymerizing a vinyl monomer in the presence of a rubber-like polymer, or a mixture of the rubber-reinforced vinyl resin and a (co)polymer of the vinyl monomer. The composition may further include 0.5-30 parts by mass of a compatibilizer (C) per 100 parts by mass of the total of Component (A) and Component (B). Component (B) is preferably a non-diene rubber-reinforced resin.

Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to provide a thermoplastic resin composition excelling in translucency, impact resistance, heat resistance and fluidity, particularly a thermoplastic resin composition that in the production of thermoplastic resin molded items through extrusion processing, molding processing, etc., permits a wide tolerance range of processing conditions, such as low susceptibility to quality deterioration by thermal history, excelling in translucency, impact resistance, heat resistance and fluidity; and a molding thereof. The present composition comprises a rubber-reinforced resin consisting of a rubber-reinforced copolymeric resin obtained by polymerization of a vinyl-based monomer including an aromatic vinyl compound in the presence of a rubbery polymer having refractive index in the range from 1.520-1.
