Highly transparent, impact-resistant molding compositions based on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), having excellent color stability both during processing at high temperatures, as well as when under thermal stress, as a result of multiple processing with simultaneously high weathering stability and stability of the optical characteristics with the effect of water. Preparation is carried out according to a multi-step extruder process, wherein an extruder for the melt coagulation and one for the compounding are connected in series. Addition of small quantities of reducing inorganic phosphorous compounds at a later stage provides prolonged effectiveness.

Color-stable, weather-, and impact-resistant molding compositions based

A thermoplastic polymethacrylate molding material with a high degree of thermal dimensional stability, a high degree of transparency, a high degree of flowability and a high degree of resistance against water, monomeric methylmethacrylate, mixtures consisting of ethanol and water, as well as fuel, wherein the molding material is a compatible mixture of 1 to 99 wt % of a copolymer P, made from (p1) 30 to 70 wt % styrene and/or .alpha.-methylstyrene, (p2) 29 to 70 wt % (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl)methacrylate, and (p3) 1 to 20 wt % acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid, the sum of (p1), (p2), and (p3) adding up to 100 wt %, and 99 to 1 wt.-parts of a polymethylmethacrylate polymer PM, made of (pm1) 80 to 100 wt % methylmethacrylate, as well as (pm2) 0 to 20 wt % monomers which can be copolymerized with methylmethacrylate.

Thermoplastic molding materials having high transparency prepared from

Polymethacrylimide polymers poor in amide or N-alkylamide groups and in carboxyl and carbonic acid anhydride groups are obtained by heating a copolymer consisting of 1 to 60 mol percent of methacrylamide or/and an N-alkyl-methacrylamide and 40-99 mol percent of an alkyl methacrylate or/and phenyl methacrylate in an aliphatic monoalcohol.

Method for making polymethacrylimide polymers

An emulsion polymer having at least three phases, adaptable as an agent for modifying the impact resistance of rigid thermoplastic synthetic resins such as polymethyl methacrylate, and consisting of

Material for modifying impact resistance

A clear impact resistant molding compound which does not become cloudy under either the influence of heat or moisture or on weathering and is composed according to the invention of:

Acrylic molding compositions

Polymer composites

Polymer blends

Multi-layer plastic elements containing a polycarbonate core, with a polymethacrylate layer containing a UV absorber, and modified to be impact-resistant, applied to the core, where the polymethacrylate plastic layer is composed of methacrylate copolymers, which form compatible mixtures with polycarbonate, especially the polycarbonate of bisphenol A, exhibit good adhesion between the polycarbonate and the polymethacrylate. The methacrylate copolymers are methyl methacrylate copolymers with (meth)acrylic monomers which contain carbocyclic substituents in the ester group. The protective layer containing UV absorber is applied to the polycarbonate plastic in thickness from 1 to 500 .mu.m by coextrusion or by lacquering.

Impact-resistant methacrylate protective layer for polycarbonate,

An impact resistance modifier for polycarbonate, which is a copolymer, comprising an elastomer and a methyl methacrylate copolymer, which are bonded covalently. The methyl methacrylate copolymer is one that is compatible by itself with polycarbonate resin due to specific comonomers. Such comonomers are aromatic (meth)acrylic esters and (meth)acrylamides, cycloalkyl(meth)acrylamides and cycloalkylmaleimides. Thermoplastic molding compounds comprising polycarbonate and the new impact resistance modifier exhibit excellent impact resistance.
