Abstract
Abstract A thermoplastic moulding composition comprising a polymer mixture of (A) 25 to 95% by weight of a graft polymer of 70 to 30% by weight of a mixture of styrene (95 to 50% by weight) and acrylonitrile (5 to 50% by weight) on 30 to 70% by weight of polybutadiene or a butadiene-styrene copolymer, and (B) 5 to 75% by weight of a terpolymer containing 10 to 30 parts by weight of acrylonitrile, 7.5 to 15 parts by weight of maleic acid anhydride, and 82.5 to 55 parts by weight of styrene in copolymerized form.

Thermoplastic moulding compositions of (A) 25 to 95% by weight of a graft polymer of 70 to 30% by weight of a mixture of 95 to 50% by weight of styrene and 5 to 50% by weight of acrylonitrile on 30 to 70% by weight of polybutadiene or a butadiene-styrene copolymer, and (B) 5 to 75% by weight of a terpolymer of acrylontrile, maleic acid anhydride and styrene, characterised in that the terpolymer contains 10 to 30 parts by weight of acrylonitrile, 7.5 to 15 parts by weight of maleic acid anhydride, and 82.5 to 55 parts by weight of styrene, in copolymerised form and is produced by continuous bulk polymerisation in an ideally mixed tank reactor under stationary conditions and with incomplete conversions of from 25 to 60 mole %, with volume time yields of from 200 to 2000 g/l and at temperatures of from 60 to 150° C. in the presence of from 0.01 to 0.5% by weight, based on monomers, of an initiator decomposing into radicals with a decomposition rate constant at 100° C. of greater than 5×10 -3 sec. -1 and, in another continuous process step, is freed from the residual monomers to a content of less than 0.1% by weight, based on the terpolymer.
