A polyamide composition of improved impact comprising a blend of components (A) 5 to 79.5 weight percent of a graft rubber composition of a graft polymer of methyl (meth)acrylate and/or (meth)acrylonitrile and a vinylaromatic monomer grafted onto a substrate rubber, (B) 94.5 to 20 weight percent of a polyamide resin, and (C) 0.5 to 60 weight percent of a polymer compatibilizer which contains from about 0.05 to 4.0 mole percent of a comonomer containing a functional group which reacts with the polyamide resin is useful for molding and extrusion.

Rubber modified nylon composition

A polyamide composition of improved impact resistance comprising a blend of components (A) a core/shell graft rubber composition having a thermoplastic copolymer shell comprising a polyamide-interactive monomer, (B) a polyamide and, (C) an acid-containing acrylate copolymer rubber.

Rubber-modified nylon composition

Blow molding nylon resin blends comprising nylon resin having relative viscosity of less than about 100 blended with sufficient melt viscosity enhancing polymer to be adaptable to blow molding and sheet extrusion. Such blends have a melt viscosity at low deformation rates of at least ten times the melt viscosity at low deformation rates of the nylon resin.

Blow molding nylon resins

A polyamide composition of improved impact resistance comprising a blend of components (A) a graft polymer of a (meth)-acrylate and/or (meth)-acrylonitrile and a vinylaromatic monomer grafted onto a substrate rubber, (B) a polyamide resin, (C) an acid-containing acrylate copolymer rubber and (D) an effective amount of an acid-containing polymer to improve the impact resistance of the polymer blend.

A polyamide composition of improved impact comprising a blend of components (A) 20 to 79.5 weight percent of a graft rubber composition of a graft polymer of methyl (meth)acrylate and/or (meth)acrylonitrile and a vinylaromatic monomer grafted onto a substrate rubber, (B) 94.5 to 20 weight percent of a polyamide resin, an (C) 1 to 60 weight percent of a polymer compatibilizer which contains from about 0.05 to 4.0 mole percent of a comonomer containing a functional group which reacts with the polyamide resin.

This invention relates to a method for preparing improved monoalkenyl aromatic polyblends having a dispersed rubber phase as rubber particles having a bimodal particle size distribution and compositions thereof.
