Abstract

Provided is a polyolefin-based resin composition including a hydrogenated block copolymer (A) and a polyolefin-based resin (B), the hydrogenated block copolymer (A) being a hydrogenated product of a block copolymer including a polymer block (a) composed of a constitutional unit derived from an aromatic vinyl compound and a polymer block (b) containing 1 to 100% by mass of a constitutional unit (b1) derived from farnesene and 99 to 0% by mass of a constitutional unit (b2) derived from a conjugated diene other than farnesene; a mass ratio of the polymer block (a) and the polymer block (b) [(a)/(b)] being 1/99 to 55/45; 50 mol % or more of carbon-carbon double bonds in the polymer block (b) being hydrogenated; and a mass ratio of the polyolefin-based resin (B) and the hydrogenated block copolymer (A) [{polyolefin-based resin (B)}/{hydrogenated block copolymer (A)}] being 1/99 to 99/1. The polyolefin-based resin composition is favorable in flexibility and molding processability, excellent in weather resistance and whitening resistance, and also excellent in rigidity.

First claim

a polymer block (b) containing 1 to 100% by mass of a constitutional unit (b1) derived from farnesene and 99 to 0% by mass of a constitutional unit (b2) derived from a conjugated diene other than farnesene; and

(B) a polyolefin-based resin,
wherein a mass ratio of the polymer block (a) and the polymer block (b) [(a)/(b)] is from 1/99 to 55/45,
wherein 50 mol % or more of carbon-carbon double bonds in the polymer block (b) are hydrogenated,
wherein a mass ratio of the polyolefin-based resin (B) and the hydrogenated block copolymer (A) [{polyolefin-based resin (B)}/{hydrogenated block copolymer (A)}] is from 1/99 to 99/1, and

2. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the farnesene is β-farnesene.

3. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a hydrogenation rate of carbon-carbon double bonds in the polymer block (b) is 70 mol % or more.

4. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a peak top molecular weight (Mp) of the hydrogenated block copolymer (A) is 4,000 to 1,500,000.

5. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) of the hydrogenated block copolymer (A) is 1 to 4.

6. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the aromatic vinyl compound is styrene.

7. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the conjugated diene other than farnesene is at least one selected from the group consisting of isoprene, butadiene, and myrcene.

8. A molded body comprising the polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 .

9. A composite molded body comprising the polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 and at least one of a dynamic crosslinking type olefin-based thermoplastic elastomer and a vulcanized rubber.

10. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the composition has an MFR value, under conditions at 200° C. and 98 N, of 10 g/10 min or more.

11. The polyolefin-based resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the mass ratio of the polyolefin-based resin (B) and the hydrogenated block copolymer (A) [{polyolefin-based resin (B)}/{hydrogenated block copolymer (A)}] is from 55/45 to 90/10.
