Abstract

An object of the invention is to provide a resin composition, from which a molded article having high durability, sliding property and wear resistance can be produced with a high productivity. The present invention provides a polyacetal resin composition containing 100 parts by mass of a polyacetal resin (A) and 10 parts by mass or more and 100 parts by mass or less of a glass filler (B), in which when a molded article formed of the polyacetal resin composition by molding is fractured by application of tensile force, the surface of the glass filler (B) protruding from a fractured surface of a fractured molded article is covered with a component containing the polyacetal resin (A) having an average thickness of 0.2 μm or more and 3.0 μm or less.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A molded article formed from a polyacetal resin composition containing 100 parts by mass of a polyacetal resin (A) and 10 parts by mass or more and 100 parts by mass or less of a glass filler (B) wherein, at least one acid is contained as a material having a function of modifying the surface of the glass filler (B) and wherein, when the molded article is fractured by application of tensile force, the surface of the glass filler (B) protruding from a fractured surface of a fractured molded article is covered with a component comprising the polyacetal resin (A) having an average thickness of 0.7 μm or more and 3.0 μm or less,
wherein the polyacetal resin (A) contains a block component including a hydrogenated polybutadiene component.

2. The molded article according to claim 1 , wherein the molded article further contains a polyethylene resin (C) having a weight-average molecular weight of 500,000 or less in an amount of 0.5 parts by mass or more and 8 parts by mass or less based on 100 parts by mass of the polyacetal resin (A).

3. The molded article according to claim 2 , wherein the polyethylene resin (C) having a weight-average molecular weight of 500,000 or less has a melting point of 115° C. or less.

4. The molded article according to claim 1 , wherein the acid is carboxylic acid.

5. The molded article according to claim 1 , wherein the molded article further contains a polyethylene resin (C) having a weight-average molecular weight of 500,000 or less; an amount of the polyethylene resin (C) having a weight-average molecular weight of 500,000 or less in a surface layer of the molded article is larger than an amount of the polyethylene resin (C) having a weight-average molecular weight of 500,000 or less in a layer surface deeper than 1,000 μm from the surface layer of the molded article as measured by cutting out the layer.

6. A method for preparing the molded article according to claim 1 , comprising a step of modifying a surface of the glass filler (B) with the material containing the at least one acid, and a step of mixing the modified glass filler and the polyacetal resin (A).
