摘要:
A fiber is prepared by melt extruding a composition including specific amounts of a polyamide and a poly(arylene ether). The ability to prepare the fiber exhibits a non-linear dependence on poly(arylene ether) content, with fibers being well formed in the absence of poly(arylene ether) and in the presence of higher amounts of poly(arylene ether), but fibers being poorly (or not at all) formed in the presence of lower amounts of poly(arylene ether). Compared to a fiber prepared from polyamide alone, the present fiber exhibits improved heat resistance and flame resistance.
摘要:
An electrically conductive thermoplastic composition is prepared by melt blending a polymer and a masterbatch of carbon nanotubes in wax having a melting point of about 45 to about 150° C. The masterbatch of carbon nanotubes in wax is more easily prepared than a conventional carbon nanotube masterbatch in high molecular weight polymer. Use of the masterbatch of carbon nanotubes in wax also improves the melt flow properties of the electrically conductive thermoplastic composition.
摘要:
A method of incorporating an additive into a polyamide-poly(arylene ether) composition includes the step of melt blending a polyamide, a poly(arylene ether), and a dispersion comprising a liquid carrier, an unmodified clay, and an additive. Using the dispersion rather than a polymer-based additive masterbatch saves energy. Like a polymer-based masterbatch, the dispersion provides the additive in a diluted form and therefore preserves the masterbatch's advantages of providing more uniform distribution additive in the plastic and avoiding direct handling of additives in the final compounding step.
摘要:
A composition comprises a poly(arylene ether), a polyamide, electrically conductive filler, an impact modifier, and wollastonite wherein the wollastonite particles have an average length to diameter ratio less than or equal to 5 and a median particle size of 2 to 5 micrometers. Methods of making the composition are also described.
