Thermoplastic moulding compositions of polycarbonate, polyalkylene terephthalate, graft copolymer and polyethylene

Claim 1

Thermoplastic moulding compositions comprising (A) from 1 to 99 parts, by weight, of polyalkylene terephthalate; (B) from 1 to 99 parts, by weight, of an aromatic polycarbonate free from o,o,o',o'-tetramethylbisphenol residues; and (C) from 1 to 30 parts, by weight, of a graft copolymer having a glass transition temperature below -20° C., which graft copolymer (C) is selected from: (1) graft copolymers obtainable by grafting (I) from 10 to 40%, by weight, based on (1), of at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester and/or of a mixture of from 10 to 35%, by weight, based on the mixture, of acrylonitrile and from 65 to 90%, by weight, based on the mixture, of styrene on (II) from 60 to 90%, by weight, based on (1), of a butadiene polymer containing at least 70%, by weight, based on (II), of butadiene residues as the graft base, the gel content of the graft base (II) amounting to ≧70% (as measured in toluene), the degree of grafting, G, to from 0.15 to 0.55 and the average particle diameter, d 50 , of the graft copolymer (B) to from 0.2 to 0.6 μm; (2) graft copolymers of (a) from 80 to 98%, by weight, based on (2), of an acrylate rubber having a glass transition temperature below -20° C. as the graft base and (b) from 2 to 20%, by weight, based on (2), of at least one polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer, of which the homo- or co-polymer formed in the absence of (a) would have a glass transition temperature above 25° C., as the graft monomer the monomer (b) having been grafted onto the completely broken latex, suspended in water, of (a) in the absence of suspending agents; the quantities of components (A), (B) and (C) totalling 100 parts, by weight, characterized in that the compositions additionally contain (D) a softening temperature increasing amount of from 0.5 to 4 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of (A+B+C) of at least one ethylene/acrylic acid copolymer containing from 1 to 8% by weight of acrylic acid units based on the copolymer weight.
