Abstract
A method for producing a polymer composition comprises the steps of providing a compatibilizing agent, providing a heterophasic polymer composition, providing a second polymer composition comprising recycled polymer; mixing the compatibilizing agent, the heterophasic polymer composition, and the second polymer composition, and generating free radicals in the heterophasic polymer composition and the second polymer composition. At least a portion of the compatibilizing agent is believed to react with the free radicals generated in the heterophasic polymer composition and the second polymer composition.
