Abstract

A molding of an ABS-based resin is described. Rubber particles located at a depth of 0.5-1.5 .mu.m from a surface of the molding morphologically comprise at least the following two types of particles: PA1 (1) A particles having an a/b ratio not greater than 1.5, wherein a and b represent a major axis and a minor axis, respectively, and PA1 (2) B particles having an a/b ratio not smaller than 5, wherein a and b have the same meanings as defined above when a section extending at the depth in parallel with the surface of the molding is observed in an electron micrograph taken by the ultrathin sectioning technique. Assuming that the total area of the rubber particles as observed in the electron micrograph is 100%, the total area of the A particles accounts for at least 10% and that of the B particles is in a range of 0.01-90%.
