1. A method for preparing a molded article of a syndiotactic polypropylene having excellent transparency which comprises the steps of heating, melting and then hot-molding (a) a homopolymer of propylene which has a syndiotactic structure such that the syndiotactic pentad fraction is 0.7 or more, (b) a copolymer of propylene and a small amount of another olefin, which has a substantially syndiotactic structure, such that, in a 13 C-NMR spectrum of the copolymer, a peak intensity at 20.2 ppm occupies 0.5 or more of the total intensity of all the peaks attributed to the methyl groups of propylene units, or (c) a mixture of said homopolymer or said copolymer and less than 50% by weight of the mixture of a polypropylene having a substantially isotactic structure;

  • and then quenching the resulting molded article at 100°

    C./minutes or more to obtain a molded article in which the melting point attributed to the polypropylene having a syndiotactic structure measured at a heating rate of 10°

    C./minute by differential scanning thermal analysis is represented by a substantially single peak.
