Effect of Compatibilizer and Flexibilizer on the Mechanical Properties of Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene)/Poly(methyl methacrylate) Blends

摘要

Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)/polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with the addition of maleic anhydride grafted polystyrene (KT-5) and polyolefin elastomer (POE) were melt processed in a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. The effect of KT-5 and POE content on the mechanical properties of ABS/PMMA was investigated. Experiment results indicate that KT-5 can improve the tensile strength and the composites are toughened effectively as the addition of POE. According to Orthogonal tests, it demonstrates that POE ha a greater effect on the blends than KT-5, and there exist no obvious interactivity between the two components.
