Abstract
A method for processing an impact modifier material having a core and shell molecular structure comprises working the impact modifier material in a mild extruder to a state such that at least a portion of the shells of the impact modifier material fuse together to form an impact modifier material output, and pelletizing the impact modifier output. The output is preferably pellitized, and produces pellets having a narrow size distribution.
