Compositions comprising (a) a monovinylidene aromatic polymer, e.g., HIPS, and (b) an ethylene/alpha-olefin (EAO) copolymer, e.g., an ethylene-propylene copolymer, that satisfies the mathematical relationship: y≦20+2.35x in which y is the ethylene content in mole percent (mol %) of the EAO copolymer and x is the Brookfield viscosity in centipoise (cP) at 10O° C. of the EAO copolymer and the viscosity is at least 1 centipoise (cP), exhibit improved environmental stress crack resistance as compared to compositions containing monovinyiidene aromatic polymers but without such an EAO copolymer. The compositions are useful in the manufacture of articles, e.g., refrigerator liners and food packaging, which come in contact with the oils contained in various food stuffs.

摘要:
The present invention is a rubber modified monovinylidene aromatic polymer composition where the rubber is a sulfanylsilane chain end modified elastomeric polymer. In the present invention the functionalized rubber provides sufficient grafting levels in standard graft polymerization process technologies to prepare desired rubber particle size distributions and morphologies. Across a range of rubber modified monovinylidene aromatic polymers, it has been found that the use of the modified elastomeric polymers according to the present invention can improve the combinations of resin properties, particularly clarity, surface and physical properties, including both rubber modified monovinylidene aromatic homopolymers (e.g., high impact polystyrene and copolymers (e.g., ABS). The functionalized rubbers have sulfanyl functional groups that provide an optimized reactive grafting site. This ensures that under graft polymerization conditions a monovinylidene aromatic polymer block is formed grafted to the butadiene polymer block. This is particularly desirable to enable the use of polybutadiene homopolymer rubbers which are more cost effectively used in rubber-modified monovinylidene aromatic polymers.

摘要:
Monovinylidene aromatic polymers, e.g., general purpose polystyrene or high impact polystyrene, are plasticized with a nonfunctionalized, nonmineral oil, e.g., a vegetable oil such as canola oil, cottonseed oil or the like. The mixture of monovinylidene aromatic polymer and oil is typically and preferably free of any significant amount of functionalized nonmineral oil, and it typically contains at least 0.1 weight percent of the nonfunctionalized, nonmineral oil, alone or in combination with a mineral oil, based on the weight of the polymer. The nonmineral oil has an iodine value of less than 120, and a hydroxyl number of less than 20.
