Abstract

A composition improves mechanical strength (e.g., impact resistance and flexural strength), and achieves improved mass productivity by reducing a situation in which a strand fuzzes during extrusion. The composition includes a conjugated diene-based polymer (A), fibers (B), and a thermoplastic resin (C), the composition including the conjugated diene-based polymer (A) in a ratio of 0.05 to 30 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the thermoplastic resin (C), and including the fibers (B) in a ratio of 3 to 150 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the thermoplastic resin (C), wherein the conjugated diene-based polymer (A) includes at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of an alkoxysilyl group and an amino group.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composition comprising a conjugated diene-based polymer (A), fibers (B), and a thermoplastic resin (C),
the composition comprising the conjugated diene-based polymer (A) in an amount of 0.05 to 30 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the thermoplastic resin (C), and comprising the fibers (B) in an amount of 3 to 150 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the thermoplastic resin (C),
wherein the conjugated diene-based polymer (A) comprises the alkoxysilyl group and the amino group.

2. The composition according to claim 1 ,
wherein the fibers (B) are at least one type of fibers selected from the group consisting of carbon fibers, glass fibers, and cellulose fibers.

3. The composition according to claim 1 ,
wherein the thermoplastic resin (C) is at least one thermoplastic resin selected from the group consisting of a polyamide, an olefin-based resin, and polyphenylene sulfide.

4. The composition according to claim 1 ,
wherein the conjugated diene-based polymer (A) comprises two or more polymer blocks selected from polymer blocks A to D,
the polymer block A being a polymer block that comprises a repeating unit derived from an aromatic alkenyl compound in an amount of 80 mass % or more,
the polymer block B being a polymer block that comprises a repeating unit derived from a conjugated diene in an amount of 80 mass % or more, and has a vinyl bond content of less than 30 mol %,
the polymer block C being a polymer block that comprises a repeating unit derived from a conjugated diene in an amount of 80 mass % or more, and has a vinyl bond content of 30 to 90 mol %, and
the polymer block D being a random copolymer block that comprises a repeating unit derived from a conjugated diene and a repeating unit derived from an aromatic alkenyl compound, and excludes the polymer blocks A to C.

5. The composition according to claim 1 ,
wherein the conjugated diene-based polymer (A) has been hydrogenated.

6. A formed article obtained by forming the composition according to claim 1 .
