Abstract

A resin composition comprises (1) a thermoplastic resin and (2) a modified polyacetal wherein a residue of a polymerizable compound having a functional group such as an epoxy group, a carboxyl group, an acid anhydride group or others is introduced to a base polyacetal in a proportion of 0.1 to 30% by weight relative to the base polyacetal. The thermoplastic resin includes various polymers such as an olefinic polymer, a styrenic polymer, a polyester, a polyamide and so on. The thermoplastic resins can be used singly or in combination, and the latter combination includes a combination of two or more species of resins being immiscible with each other, a combination of a polyacetal and a resin except for a polyacetal (e.g. an elastomer, etc.) and other combinations. The relative ratio of (1) the thermoplastic resin to (2) the modified polyacetal is such that the former/the latter equals about 1/99 through 99/1 (by weight).
