摘要:
There are disclosed new, high-impact resistant compositions based on polyvinylchloride and comprising graft copolymers of vinyl monomers and certain rubbery polyalkenamers having a narrow molecular weight distribution. Unexpectedly, the graft copolymers function to improve the mechanical properties, more particularly the impact resistance, of the compositions, as compared to polyvinylchloride, per se. That polyvinylchloride tends to be brittle and to have relatively low impact resistance is well known. In the past, it has been attempted to overcome the brittleness of polyvinylchloride, and its relatively low impact resistance by incorporating various plasticizers with it. A problem has been the tendency of the plasticizers to ''''bleed,'''' a result of a basic incompatibility of the polyvinylchloride and the plasticizers available.

POLYMERIC COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING GRAFT COPOLYMERS OF VINYL CHLORIDE AND FROM 2% TO 25% BY WEIGHT OF AN AMORPHOUS ETHYLENE COPOLYMER, WHICH COMPOSITIONS ARE DIRECTLY USEABLE AS PRODUCED, WITHOUT SOLVENT EXTRACTION, IN THE MANUFACTURE OF SHAPED ARTICLES HAVING COMMERCIALLY ACCEPTABLE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES INCLUDING IMPACT STRENGTH, ARE PROVIDED. THE COMPOSITIONS ARE OBTAINED BY POLYMERIZING VINYL CHLORIDE IN CONTACT WITH THE AMORPHOUS ETHYLENE COPOLYMER AND AN INITIATOR OF THE VINYL CHLORIDE POLYMERIZATION.
