Abstract

Disclosed is a thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) nanocomposite composition, more particularly a TPO nanocomposite composition including a polypropylene resin, a polyethylene resin, a rubber resin, a nanoclay master batch and a glass bubble master batch. Since the disclosed TPO nanocomposite composition has low specific gravity and superior gloss reducing effect and scratch resistance, it may be usefully applied to light automobile parts, uncoated automobile exterior parts, or the like.
