Abstract
A thermoplastic resin composition can be obtained by adding about 0.1 to 20 parts by weight of a diene-series block copolymer (2) to 100 parts by weight of a resin composition containing a polycarbonate-series resin (1) as a basic component of which the proportion of terminal hydroxy groups relative to the whole of the terminals is 1 mole % or above (about 5 to 40 mole %). The polycarbonate-series resin base may further comprise a thermoplastic resin composition (3) such as a rubber-modified styrenic resin. The block copolymer component (2) includes an epoxy-modified block copolymer, etc. When added an organophosphorus compound as a flame retardant (4), or a fluorine-containing resin as a flame-retartant auxiliary (5), a halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastic resin composition can be obtained. A thermoplastic resin with an improved flowability and impact strength can be obtained by modifying a polymer blend of the polycarbonate-series resin and the styrenic-series resin in quality.
