Abstract
Abstract Impact-resistant polyoxymethylene molding materials containing (A) from 30 to 95% by weight of one or more polyoxymethylenes and (B) from 5 to 70% by weight of one or more elastomeric graft polymers which are prepared by emulsion polymerization, are dispersed in component A, have a mean particle diameter of from 0.08 to 2 μm and are composed of 1. from 60 to 90% by weight of a grafting base of crosslinked polybutadiene in which not more than 30% by weight of the butadiene may be replaced with isoprene, 2,3-dimethylbutadiene, styrene, p-methylstyrene, α-methylstyrene and/or (meth)acrylonitrile, and 2. from 10 to 40% by weight of one or more grafted shells consisting of polymers of styrene and/or methyl methacrylate, in which not more than 15% by weight of the said monomers 2 may be replaced with acrylonitrile or a C 1 -C 8 -alkyl acrylate, the percentages A and B and the percentages 1 and 2 summing to 100, with or without (C) effective amounts of assistants, and a process for their preparation.

Dependent Claim
162 words
An impact-resistant polyoxymethylene molding material containing (A) from 30 to 95% by weight of one or more polyoxymethylenes and (B) from 5 to 70% by weight of one or more elastomeric graft polymers which are prepared by emulsion polymerization, are dispersed in component A, have a mean particle diameter of from 0.08 to 2 μm and are composed of 1. from 60 to 90% by weight of a grafting base of crosslinked polybutadiene in which not more than 30% by weight of the butadiene may be replaced by one or more of isoprene, 2,3-dimethylbutadiene, styrene, p-methylstyrene, α-methylstyrene and (meth)acrylonitrile, and 2. from 10 to 40% by weight of one or more grafted shells consisting of polymers of styrene, methyl methacrylate or mixtures thereof which not more than 30% by weight of the said monomers 2 may be replaced with acrylonitrile or a C 1 -C 8 -alkyl acrylate, the percentages A and B and the percentages 1 and 2 summing to 100,
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
An impact-resistant molding material as defined in claim 1, wherein the graft polymer has a gel content greater than 50%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
An impact-resistant molding material as defined in claim 1, containing from 10 to 100% by weight, based on the sum of components A and B, of reinforcing fillers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
