摘要:
A compatible blend of an engineering thermoplastic such as a polyamide and an olefin polymer material is prepared by (1) making an oxidized olefin polymer material containing carboxylic acid groups or derivatives thereof, (2) extruding a mixture of (a) the oxidized olefin polymer material from step (1), (b) an engineering thermoplastic, (c) optionally, an inorganic base, and (d) optionally, a non-oxidized olefin polymer material, and (3) recovering a blend of the engineering thermoplastic, the oxidized olefin polymer material or an ionomer thereof, which acts as a compatibilizer, and, optionally, the non-oxidized olefin polymer material.The oxidized olefin polymer material can be made by treating the olefin polymer material with an organic peroxide initiator while adding a controlled amount of oxygen.
摘要:
Graft copolymers are prepared, in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, by (1) irradiating a particulate olefin polymer material with high energy ionizing radiation, (2) treating the irradiated olefin polymer material with at least one grafting monomer that is capable of forming side chains on the olefin polymer material, in the presence of at least one additive to control the molecular weight of the side chains of the polymerized grafting monomer selected from (a) at least one hydroxylamine derivative polymerization inhibitor, and (b) at least one thio-, nitro-, or halogen-substituted aliphatic or aromatic compound or an aliphatic or aromatic phosphine derivative, and (3) deactivating the residual free radicals in the resulting grafted olefin polymer material and removing any unreacted vinyl monomer from the material. Graft copolymers with low molecular weight side chains are produced that are easier to process and have improved internal and surface morphology.
摘要:
A three-layer, co-extruded tube has (1) an inner polyamide layer, (2) a middle layer made from (a) a modified polylefin, (b) a broad molecular weight distribution propylene polymer material, (c) a graft copolymer made from a backbone of propylene polymer material to which is grafted a methyl methacrylate/methyl acrylate copolymer or a methyl methacrylate/methacrylic acid copolymer, and (d) an olefin copolymer rubber, and (3) an outer layer made from (a) a broad molecular weight distributation propylene polymer material, (b) a graft copolymer made from a backbone of propylene polymer material to which is grafted a methyl methacrylate/methyl acrylate copolymer or a methyl methacrylate/methacrylic acid copolymer, and (c) an olefin copolymer rubber. The tubing is suitable for fuel systems, high pressure tubing, and other tubing for automotive applications.
摘要:
A polymer blend containing (1) about 1% to about 98% of a graft copolymer comprising a backbone of a propylene polymer material having graft polymerized thereto monomers selected from (a) at least one vinyl aromatic compound and an unsaturated carboxylic acid and b) at least one vinyl aromatic compound and an anhydride of an unsaturated acid or its acid form, wherein the polymerized monomers are present in an amount of about 10 to about 95 parts per hundred parts of the propylene polymer material, (2) about 99% to about 2% of at least one polyamide resin, and (3) about 5% to about 90% of a broad molecular weight distribution propylene polymer material.

摘要:
Disclosed is a composition comprising, by weight, (a) about 94% to about 30% of a graft copolymer comprising a backbone of a propylene polymer material having graft polymerized thereto monomers that form grafted copolymers or terpolymers, the monomers being selected from the group consisting of (i) styrene and acrylonitrile, and (ii) styrene and maleic anhydride, or alpha-methylstyrene, styrene and maleic anhydride, wherein the grafted copolymers or terpolymers formed from (i) or (ii) are present in an amount of about 10 to about 95 pph of propylene polymer material, (b) about 5% to about 40% of at least one aromatic polycarbonate, and (c) about 1% to about 15% of at least one aliphatic polyester. The composition optionally also comprises about 5% to about 20% of one or more rubber components, about 1% to about 50% of a propylene polymer material, or both.
