Abstract

Abstract A thermoplastic blend composition having especially superior impact strength and fatigue resistance comprising 15 ro 80% by weight of a polyphenylene oxide, 16 to 75% by weight of a rubber-modified polystyrene, 2 to 15% by weight of an aromatic polycarbonate and 2 to 15% by weight of a high styrene rubber, the sum total of the proportions of these ingredients being 100% by weight.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 262 words
In a thermoplastic blend composition having especially superior impact strength and fatigue resistance comprising A. 15 to 80% by weight of a polyphenylene oxide having a polymeric structure expressed by the following formula ##SPC2## wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different, and each represents a methyl or ethyl group, and n is a positive integer of at least 85, B. 16 to 75% by weight of a rubber-modified polystyrene having polymeric units of a conjugated diene monomer and polymeric units of an aromatic vinyl monomer, obtained by polymerizing the aromatic vinyl monomer in the presence of one member selected from the group consisting of a polymer of the conjugated diene monomer and a rubbery polymer which is a copolymer of the conjugated diene monomer and at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propylene, acrylonitrile and styrene, the content of said polymeric units of the conjugated diene monomer in the rubber-modified polystyrene being 2 to 15% by weight, and C. 2 to 15% by weight of an aromatic polycarbonate, the improvement wherein the composition further comprises D. 2 to 15% by weight of a high styrene rubber having polymeric units of a conjugated diene monomer and polymeric units of an aromatic vinyl monomer, obtained by copolymerizing the conjugated diene monomer and an aromatic vinyl monomer, the content of said polymeric units of the aromatic vinyl monomer in the high styrene rubber being 35 to 65% by weight, the sum total of the proportions of the components (A), (B), (C) and (D) being 100% by weight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 262 words
In a thermoplastic blend composition having especially superior impact strength and fatigue resistance comprising A. 15 to 80% by weight of a polyphenylene oxide having a polymeric structure expressed by the following formula ##SPC2## wherein R 1 and R 2 are the same or different, and each represents a methyl or ethyl group, and n is a positive integer of at least 85, B. 16 to 75% by weight of a rubber-modified polystyrene having polymeric units of a conjugated diene monomer and polymeric units of an aromatic vinyl monomer, obtained by polymerizing the aromatic vinyl monomer in the presence of one member selected from the group consisting of a polymer of the conjugated diene monomer and a rubbery polymer which is a copolymer of the conjugated diene monomer and at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propylene, acrylonitrile and styrene, the content of said polymeric units of the conjugated diene monomer in the rubber-modified polystyrene being 2 to 15% by weight, and C. 2 to 15% by weight of an aromatic polycarbonate, the improvement wherein the composition further comprises D. 2 to 15% by weight of a high styrene rubber having polymeric units of a conjugated diene monomer and polymeric units of an aromatic vinyl monomer, obtained by copolymerizing the conjugated diene monomer and an aromatic vinyl monomer, the content of said polymeric units of the aromatic vinyl monomer in the high styrene rubber being 35 to 65% by weight, the sum total of the proportions of the components (A), (B), (C) and (D) being 100% by weight.
