A polyacetal resin composition comprises a polyacetal resin, and at least one carboxylic acid hydrazide selected from a saturated or unsaturated long-chain aliphatic carboxylic acid hydrazide, a saturated or unsaturated alicyclic carboxylic acid hydrazide, a dimer acid or trimer acid hydrazide, and an oxycarboxylic acid hydrazide corresponding to each of these hydrazides. The proportion of the carboxylic acid hydrazide may be about 0.001 to 20 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the polyacetal resin. The polyacetal resin composition may further comprise at least one member selected from an antioxidant, a heat stabilizer, a processing stabilizer, a weather (light)-resistant stabilizer, an impact resistance improver, a slip-improving agent, a coloring agent, and a filler. With the use of such a resin composition, stability of a polyacetal resin is improved, and formaldehyde emission is inhibited.
