Abstract
Thermoplastic compositions have been discovered which are suitable for rotational molding. The compositions have improved processability and/or improved physical and mechanical properties. The compositions advantageously often exhibit one or more of the following: reduced low shear viscosity, reduced melt elasticity at low shear rate, reduced cycle times, improved sintering and a wide range of processing temperatures, improved low temperature and/or room temperature impact, good environmental stress crack resistance, acceptable heat distortion temperature, and acceptable flexural and secant modulus.
