A thermoplastic resin composition of the present invention comprises: a thermal stabilizer including a rubber-modified vinyl-based graft copolymer and a phenol-based thermoplastic resin thermal stabilizer including an aromatic vinyl-based copolymer resin and a phosphorus-based thermal stabilizer; and a zinc oxide which has an average particle size of approximately 0.5 to approximately 3 μm and a specific surface area BET of approximately 1 to approximately 10 m.sup.2/g. The thermoplastic resin composition has excellent low-odor and antibacterial properties.

Curable compositions, cured compositions, articles containing the curable or cured compositions, and methods of making the articles are provided. More particularly, the curable compositions contain a (meth)acrylate-based polymer having pendant (meth)acryloyl groups, at least one monomer having a single ethylenically unsaturated group, a photoinitiator that includes an acyl phosphine oxide, and a thixotropic agent. The curable compositions can be printed or dispensed, if desired, and the cured compositions are pressure-sensitive adhesives.
