Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to mixtures comprising (a) thermoplastic aromatic polycarbonates having Mw (weight average molecular weight) of 10,000 to 200,000, preferably 20,000 to 80,000 (determined by measuring the relative viscosity ηrel in CH 2 Cl 2 at 25° C. and a concentration of 0,5 g per 100 ml CH 2 Cl 2 (b) thermoplastic polymers of C 1 -C 4 --alkyl methacrylates having Mw (weight average moleculr weight) of 10,000 to 1,000,000 (measured in dimethylformamide at 25° C.) and (c) particulate graft polymers of methyl methacrylate onto a particulate, highly crosslinked alkyl acrylate-rubber which can optionally also contain a crosslinked diene rubber as an inner core, as well as to thermoplastic moulding compositions based on thermoplastic ABS resins or thermoplastic SAN resins which contain the three-component mixture (a)+(b)+(c).
