It is an object of the present invention to provide a thermoplastic elastomer composition excellent in softness, permanent compression set (both short- and long-term) and resistance to oil, and controlled in bleed-out of the softening agent. It is another object of the present invention to provide a formed article and composite formed article of the above thermoplastic elastomer composition. The present invention provides a thermoplastic elastomer composition containing (a) 100 parts by weight of at least one hydrogenated block copolymer, (b) 30 to 150 parts by weight of a non-aromatic-based softening agent for rubber and (c) 3 to 100 parts by weight of a thermoplastic resin having a melting point of 70 to 140° C., determined by the DSC analysis, and melt viscosity of 400 to 100,000 cps at 140° C., and formed article and composite formed article thereof. |
