A shaped article having excellent rigidity, resistances to thermal deformation and to mechanical impact at a low temperature, a superior lacquer-bonding property and a satisfactory appearance is made from a propylene polymer composition comprising (A) 45 to 65% by weight of at least one crystalline ethylene-propylene block copolymer in which the content of the polymerized ethylene is in the range of from 5 to 10% by weight, in which the polypropylene component has a fraction thereof insoluble in boiling n-heptane, in an amount of 95% or more, in which a fraction thereof soluble in p-xylene at room temperature, has an intrinsic viscosity of from 3 to 4 determined in decahydronaphthalene at a temperature of 135 DEG C. and which has a melt flow index of from 5 to 70; (B) 25 to 40% by weight of at least one amorphous ethylene-propylene copolymer having an intrinsic viscosity of from 2.0 to 3.5 determined in decahydronaphthalene at a temperature of 135 DEG C., and a Mooney viscosity ML1+4 of from 40 to 100 determined at a temperature of 100 DEG C.; (C) 4 to 20% by weight of at least one high density polyethylene having a melt flow index of from 1 to 10; and (D) 3 to 20% by weight of talc in the form of fine particles having an average size of from 0.01 to 5 microns, the weight ratio of the amorphous ethylene-propylene copolymer (B) to the high density polyethylene (C) being in the range of from 10:1 to 5:3. |
