Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Pellets of an acrylic block copolymer (I) having a polymer block (A1) containing methacrylic acid ester units and a polymer block (B1) containing acrylic acid ester units, and an acrylic polymer (II) having 35 mass % or more methyl methacrylate units are provided. The polymer block (B1) is made of methyl acrylate units and acrylic acid ester units of formula CH2═CH—COOR1 (1), wherein R1 represents a C4-C12 alkyl group. A shaped article prepared with the pellets is also provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Pellets, comprising: an acrylic block copolymer (I) comprising a polymer block (A1) comprising methacrylic acid ester units and a polymer block (B1) comprising acrylic acid ester units, and an acrylic polymer (II) comprising 35 mass % or more methyl methacrylate units and having a melt flow rate (MFR) measured at 230° C. under 3.8 kg load of not less than 10 g/10 min, wherein the acrylic acid ester units present in the polymer block (B1) of the acrylic block copolymer (I) consist of methyl acrylate units and acrylic acid ester units of formula CH 2 ═CH—COOR 1 (1), wherein R 1 represents a C4-C12 alkyl group, and a mass ratio (I)/(II) of the acrylic block copolymer (I) to the acrylic polymer (II) is from 90/10 to 40/60. 2. The pellets of claim 1 , further comprising 200 to 2000 ppm of an antiblocking agent. 3. A shaped article obtained by shaping the pellets of claim 1 . 4. The pellets of claim 1 wherein a mass ratio of the methyl acrylate units to the acrylic acid ester (1) units in the polymer block (B1), is from 90/10 to 10/90.
