Abstract
Abstract A melt-blended composition comprising poly(arylene sulfide) and hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer with the hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer present in an amount of up to about 5 weight percent of the total composition. A method for increasing the crystallinity of poly(arylene sulfide) by melt-blending therewith hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer in an amount up to about 5 weight percent of the total composition.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 21
Claim 1
Independent Claim
94 words
A melt-blending composition comprising poly(arylene sulfide) and hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer which has been produced by sequential polymerization of about 10 to about 90 parts by weight conjugated diene with about 90 to about 10 parts by weight monovinyl substituted aromatic hydrocarbon and subsequent hydrogenation of at least 80 percent of the aliphatic double bonds while not more than 25 percent of the aromatic double bonds have been hydrogenated said hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer present in an amount of up to about 5 percent by weight of the total composition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
94 words
A melt-blending composition comprising poly(arylene sulfide) and hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer which has been produced by sequential polymerization of about 10 to about 90 parts by weight conjugated diene with about 90 to about 10 parts by weight monovinyl substituted aromatic hydrocarbon and subsequent hydrogenation of at least 80 percent of the aliphatic double bonds while not more than 25 percent of the aromatic double bonds have been hydrogenated said hydrogenated conjugated diene/monovinyl aromatic block copolymer present in an amount of up to about 5 percent by weight of the total composition.
