Abstract

A thermoplastic resin composition and a molded article including the same are disclosed. The thermoplastic resin composition includes: (A) a base resin including (a1) a styrene copolymer and (a2) a rubber-modified vinyl graft copolymer; and (B) surface-treated metal particles, wherein the surface-treated metal particles include: a metal core; a first coating layer formed on the metal core; and a second coating layer formed on the first coating layer. The thermoplastic resin composition can exhibit significantly improved glossiness and appearance by preventing flow marks and weld lines that can occur upon injection molding, while exhibiting a luxurious metallic texture even without painting.
