Abstract
Compatibilized polymer blends are described comprising a blend of olefin polymer, nitrile rubber, and a compatibilizing amount of block copolymer comprising nitrile rubber compatibilizing segments and olefin polymer compatibilizing segments.
Claims31
A compatibilized polymer composition comprising a blend of thermoplastic olefin polymer, nitrile rubber having an average molecular weight of 50,000 or more, and, in a compatibilization enhancing amount, a block copolymer comprising at least one nitrile rubber compatibilizing segment and at least one olefin polymer compatibilizing segment.
A block copolymer comprising at least one segment each of nitrile rubber and an olefin polymer, said copolymer being derived from an olefin polymer containing one or more graft forming functional groups.
