Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a fusible polymeric alloy composition comprising (A) a matrix interpolymer, (B) a grafted diene rubber, (C) a polymer other than (A) or (B) having a solubility parameter in the range of 8.5 to 13 and (D) an inorganic filler. Said alloy having low thermal expansion, high modulus and toughness yet unexpectedly superior processing and molding properties for highly filled alloys.
