Abstract: Provided are a granular inorganic filler which is highly effective in improving the physical properties of resins and excellent in working efficiency, working atmosphere, productivity and economical efficiency, a process for producing the filler, and resin compositions excellent in mechanical properties, surface appearance, flame retardance and antiblock properties. The filler is produced by granulating a mixture comprising inorganic filler particles having a mean particle diameter of 0.01 to 20 &mgr;m and a binder in such a way as to give an apparent density of 0.1 to 3.0 g/ml and a breakage rate of 5 to 80 wt %. The resin compositions are prepared by adding the granular inorganic filler to resins.
