DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a thermoplastic resin composition, and more particularly to a thermoplastic resin composition comprising a p-methylstyrene copolymer and a polyamide. Conventional technology Polyamide has excellent chemical resistance, heat resistance, abrasion resistance, etc., and is used in various molded products, but it shrinks during molding, has a large decline in physical properties due to moisture absorption, and has high heat resistance under high loads. It has drawbacks such as low deformation temperature. In order to improve these drawbacks, copolymers with other polymers and compositions with other polymers are known. For example, a styrenic compound that is essentially styrene and an α,β-based compound that is essentially maleic anhydride.
A copolymer of a copolymer with an unsaturated carboxylic anhydride and a polyamide (JP-A-56-50931), a composition consisting of a styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer resin and a polyamide resin (JP-A-56-50931); Publication No. 57-25355) etc. have been attempted. Although some of the physical properties such as hygroscopicity, melt viscosity, and molding shrinkage properties have been improved through the above-mentioned attempts, they are still not sufficient when considering the balance with mechanical strength, heat resistance, etc. Problems to be Solved by the Invention The purpose of the present invention is to improve the heat distortion temperature, mechanical strength, and hygroscopicity of polyamide. Means for Solving Problems Summary of the Invention The summary of the present invention is that a copolymer of 5 to 60% by weight of p-methylstyrene and maleic anhydride and a polyamide
It is a thermoplastic resin composition consisting of 95 to 40% by weight. Composition component (1) Copolymer of p-methylstyrene and maleic anhydride The copolymer of p-methylstyrene and maleic anhydride (hereinafter referred to as PMSM) used in the present invention has at least one para-position. It is a copolymer of 80%, preferably 90% or more, and more preferably 95% or more of methylstyrene and maleic anhydride. 60-99
% by weight, preferably 80-95% by weight, maleic anhydride 40-1% by weight, preferably 20-5% by weight. The molecular weight of PMSM is weight average molecular weight (w)
About 10 million to about 1 million, preferably about 10,000 to about 30
10,000, and the molecular weight distribution (w/n) is 1.5~
It is 4.0. Such PMSM can be obtained by mixing and stirring p-methylstyrene and maleic anhydride while heating, but in order to obtain a copolymer with phlegmatic properties, it can be obtained by mixing p-methylstyrene and maleic anhydride with stirring in a solvent such as a hydrocarbon or ketone. , a method of copolymerization in the presence or absence of a radical generator is desirable. Furthermore, PMSM modified with a rubber component may also be used. Rubber component modified PMSM is PMSM
In the production of It is obtained by copolymerizing in the presence of a rubber component such as conjugated diene ternary copolymer rubber (EPDM).
The ratio of the rubber component in the rubber modified PMSM is 1
~20% by weight is desirable. (2) Polyamide Examples of the polyamide used in the present invention include nylon-6, nylon-6,6, and nylon-6,10. These polyamides generally have a number average molecular weight (n) of about 4,000 to about
50,000, but higher values can be used. Composition The composition of the present invention comprises 5-60% by weight of PMSM, preferably 10-40% by weight, and 95-40% by weight of nylon.
It desirably consists of 90 to 60% by weight. If PMSM is less than 5% by weight and nylon is less than 40% by weight, the object of the present invention cannot be achieved. The composition can be obtained by mixing PMSM and polyamide in the above proportions, but in order to evenly disperse the two and create a composition that has biophilic properties, it is necessary to use a Brabender, extruder, or Banbury mixer. , melt kneading using a kneader such as a mixing roll, or solution kneading using a solvent capable of dissolving both components. The composition of the present invention may contain various additives such as heat stabilizers, ultraviolet absorbers, nucleating agents, antistatic agents, colorants, etc., and various fillers such as inorganic fillers, plasticizers, etc. I can do it. These additives may be mixed during or after preparation of the composition. Effects of the Invention The composition of the present invention has superior mechanical strength and heat resistance compared to polyamide, has a lower water absorption rate, and has better heat resistance and ductility than a composition composed of a styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer and polyamide. Excellent. The composition of the present invention has the above-mentioned excellent properties and can be used as a molding material for various industrial products such as automobiles and electrical appliances, and these molded products can be easily produced by ordinary plastic molding methods. It can be formed into. Examples Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail by examples.

100 parts were added and heated to 100°C. To this, 5 parts of maleic anhydride, 0.2 parts of azobisisobutyronisolyl, and 20 parts of methyl ethyl ketone were added continuously over 8 hours with stirring, and the copolymerization reaction was carried out while maintaining the temperature at 100°C. After the addition of maleic anhydride was completed, stirring was continued at the same temperature for an additional 2 hours. Next, 200 parts of methyl ethyl ketone was added and cooled.
The entire solution was taken up into 20 volumes of methanol to separate the polymer.
