    Abstract: Method for producing a thermoplastic molding compound (F) in an extruder, which has at least one screw having an outside diameter (D), wherein a thermoplastic component (TP) containing at least one thermoplastic polymer, a component (C) containing a graft polymer based in particular on butadiene and/or acrylate, and optionally a component (Z) containing additives are heated to a temperature of 200° C. to 280° C., melted and mixed by supplying thermal energy in a melting section (S) and/or in at least one mixing section (M) such that the thermoplastic molding compound (F) is formed, and the thermoplastic molding compound is subsequently degassed in a degassing zone (E) of the extruder, wherein an absolute pressure (P1) of less than 2 bar is set in this zone, and after the degassing the molding compound (F) is conveyed to a melt pump (SP) by screw elements, wherein the total length of the screw elements of a conveying path (FS) from the degassing opening (O) to the melt pump (SP) is less than five times the outside diameter (D) of the at least one screw.
