Abstract
A process for making a compatible LCP blend by reactively esterifying an LCP having a carboxylic acid or ester end group with either PPO or PPS, or derivatives thereof, using a catalytic mixture containing boric acid and polyphosphoric acid or sulfuric acid. The carboxylic functionality on the LCP reacts with the hydroxyl end group on the PPO or the thiol end group on the PPS to form an ester or thioester linkage. The two polymers to be blended are melt mixed with the catalyst mixture and extruded.
