Tablets of thermoplastic resin and filler, in which the compositional
ratio of the two is so controlled that the thermoplastic resin accounts
for from 1 to 40% by volume and the filler for from 60 to 99% by volume
based on the sum of the two, 100% by volume, are obtained by
compression-molding thermoplastic resin powder and filler into the
tablets, or melt-kneading thermoplastic resin and filler followed by
compression-molding the powder of the resulting composition into the
tablets. The filler content thereof is high, heretofore unknown in the
art, and the tablets efficiently exhibit the properties of the filler
therein.
