- 4. A polyphenylene sulfide resin composition according to claim 1, wherein the proportions of the components (A) and the component (B) are 99 to 55% weight and 1 to 45% by weight respectively.
- 5. A polyphenylene sulfide resin composition according to a claim 1, wherein further contains at least one substance selected from the group consisting of reinforcing fibers, inorganic fillers, organic fire retardants and fire retarding assistants.
- 6. A polyphenylene sulfide resin composition comprising:
- (A) 99.5 to 50% by weight of a polyphenylene sulfide resin and
- (B) 0.5 to 50% by weight of an olefinic copolymer containing 60 to 99.5% by weight of an .alpha.-olefin and 0.5 to 40% by weight of a glycidyl ester of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid, characterized in that said polyphenylene sulfide resin (A) is isolated as a powder from the reaction mixture after polymerization and then immersed under stirring in at least one member selected from the group consisting of an acid, an acid solution and hot water which is at a temperature of 100.degree. C. or higher, and an organic solvent which is at a temperature from room temperature to about 300.degree. C., for a time sufficient to improve said polyphenylene sulfide resin's affinity with said olefinic copolymer (B).
- 7. A polyphenylene sulfide resin composition according to claim 6, wherein said organic solvent is at least one solvent selected from the group consisting of N-methyl pyrrolidone, acetone, N,N-dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and chloroform.
- 8. A process for producing a polyphenylene sulfide resin composition comprising the steps of:
- (1) Contacting a polyphenylene sulfide resin (A) by immersing under stirring in at least one member selected from the group consisting of an acid, an acid solution and hot water which is at a temperature of 100.degree. C. or higher for a time sufficient to improve said polyphenylene sulfide resin's affinity with the following copolymer (B), and
- (2) melt-mixing 99.5% to 50% by weight of said resin (A) and 0.05 to 50% by weight of an olefinic copolymer (B) containing 60 to 99.5% by weight of an .alpha.-olefin and 0.5 to 40% by weight of a glycidyl ester of an .alpha.,.beta.=unsaturated carboxylic acid.
- 9. A process for producing a polyphenylene sulfide resin composition comprising the steps of:
- (1) contacting a polyphenylene sulfide resin (A) which is isolated as a powder from a reaction mixture after polymerization by immersing under stirring in at least one member selected from the group consisting of an acid, an acid solution and hot water which is at a temperature of 100.degree. C. or higher and an organic solvent which is at a temperature from room temperature to about 300.degree. C. for a time sufficient to improve said polyphenylene sulfide resin's affinity with the following copolymer (B), and
- (2) melt-mixing 99.5 to 50% by weight of said resin (A) and 0.05 to 50% by weight of an olefinic copolymer (B) containing 60 to 99.5% by weight of an .alpha.-olefin and 0.5 to 40% by weight of a glycidyl ester of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid.
