Patent ID: 8193284

Claim:
A process for producing a polyolefin resin composition containing a polyolefin ingredient (A) having an intrinsic viscosity [η] A of 3 to 5 dl/g and a polyolefin ingredient (B) having an intrinsic viscosity [η] B of 0.5 to 3 dl/g with a ratio of intrinsic viscosity [η] A to intrinsic viscosity [η] B ([η] A /[η] B ) being in a range of 1.5 to 10, wherein the process comprises: a mixing step comprising melt-kneading a raw material composition which contains the polyolefin ingredient (A) and the polyolefin ingredient (B) to prepare a mixed fluid having a content of the polyolefin ingredient (A) of 0.05 to 35 mass % and a content of the polyolefin ingredient (B) of 99.5 to 65 mass % based on the total mass of the raw material composition, wherein the raw material composition is one obtained by a polymerization process comprising a step of producing the polyolefin ingredient (A) having an intrinsic viscosity of not less than 3 dl/g and a step of continuously producing the polyolefin ingredient (B) having an intrinsic viscosity of less than 3 dl/g, and the whole raw material composition has an intrinsic viscosity of less than 3 dl/g; and a filtering step comprising introducing the mixed fluid into a filter device having a main body section having a flow passage through which the mixed fluid is transferred and a sintered metal filter having a filtration accuracy of 1 to 40 μm and disposed in the flow passage of the main body section of the device and forcing the mixed fluid to pass through the sintered metal filter so that the filtration rate of the mixed fluid will be 0.001 to 20 cm/min, wherein the sintered metal filter is fixed to the main body section of the device while keeping a section where the edge of the sintered metal filter abuts with the main body section of the device hermetically sealed.
