摘要:
Compositions including a thermoplastic elastomer or thermoplastic vulcanizate derived from a styrenic block copolymer having a reactive or crosslinkable hard block including aromatic vinyl repeat units and also preferably a crosslinkable soft block, and a non-olefin thermoplastic polymer or copolymer and preferably a compatibilizer such as the reaction product of a non-olefin thermoplastic polymer and a functionalized polymer such as a maleic anhydride functionalized styrenic block copolymer that is compatible with the styrenic block copolymer having a reactive or crosslinkable hard block, and optionally a linking compound. The vulcanizates are prepared by crosslinking the styrenic block copolymer in the presence of the non-olefin thermoplastic polymer and a suitable crosslinking agent, and optionally the compatibilizer, preferably utilizing dynamic vulcanization. In a further embodiment, thermoplastic vulcanizate compositions are provided including the styrenic block copolymer, a polyolefin polymer or copolymer, a non-olefin thermoplastic polymer and the compatibilizer.
摘要:
A compatibilizer including a first portion compatible with a fluoropolymer and a second portion compatible with a polyolefin. Compatibilized compositions comprising a polyolefin, a fluoropolymer, and a compatibilizer are also disclosed. Methods for forming both the compatibilizer and the blends contained in the compatibilizer are described. The compatibilized compositions of the present invention exhibit desired mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation. The flame retarded compatibilized blends exhibit desirable dielectric properties, are flame resistant and exhibit low smoke emission.

摘要:
Polymer compositions including an olefinic polymer, a polar polymer and a compatibilizer are disclosed. The compatilizer can be a block or graft copolymer including polymer portions that are compatible with the olefinic polymer and polymer portions that are compatible with the polar polymer.
摘要:
Thermoplastic elastomer compositions which have good high temperature end use and good oil swell resistance are made by blending a high melting thermoplastic polymer containing a non-polar rubber and a polar rubber. Alternatively, a high melting thermoplastic polymer containing a non-polar rubber or a polar rubber or both is blended with a polyolefin thermoplastic polymer containing a non-polar rubber, or a polar rubber, or both. The composition is dynamically vulcanized. The cured multi-component thermoplastic elastomer compositions exhibit good end use properties such as hardness, tensile strength, modulus, flexibility.

Elastomeric compositions having improved heat aging properties are provided by blends of thermoplastic polyester resin and hydrogenated nitrile rubber. The rubber component of the composition is at least partially cured.
摘要:
Thermoplastic elastomer compositions comprise a blend of polyester resin and a covalently-crosslinked acrylate rubber. Such compositions can be prepared by dynamic vulcanization of the rubber in admixture with the polyester and can exhibit high temperature dimensional stability and low oil swell.
摘要:
Shaped articles are made from blends of rubber and plastic in which the rubber is in the form of discrete vulcanized particles dispersed in the plastic. After shaping the articles, they are exposed to free-radical crosslinking which converts the blends from thermoplastics to thermosets.
