Abstract

Abstract A given amount of crystalline polypropylene resin is blended with an olefin copolymer rubber to prepare a preblend comprising an olefin copolymer rubber/crystalline polypropylene and then the preblend is melt-blended with a crystalline polypropylene resin in the presence of peroxide. The present invention is based upon the fracture mechanism occurring between the crystalline polypropylene and rubber and is accomplished by the reciprocal combination of the reactions such as cross-linking reaction, random scission reaction of the polymer main chain, graft reaction and blocking reaction to form a cell structure. An object of the present invention is to provide a method which results in a product having better homogeneity, better heat-resistance, higher impact-resistance and greater flowabilty than heretofore known methods of preparation.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 72 words
A method of producing an olefin thermoplastic resin composition, which comprises blending an olefin copolymer rubber and a crystalline polypropylene in the ratio of 1:0.01-0.5 to prepare a preblend in which the crystalline polypropylene is dispersed into the olefin copolymer rubber and then melt blending 10-75 parts by weight of said preblend and 90-25 parts by weight of the crystalline polypropylene in the presence of an organic peroxide in a blending extruder.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 72 words
A method of producing an olefin thermoplastic resin composition, which comprises blending an olefin copolymer rubber and a crystalline polypropylene in the ratio of 1:0.01-0.5 to prepare a preblend in which the crystalline polypropylene is dispersed into the olefin copolymer rubber and then melt blending 10-75 parts by weight of said preblend and 90-25 parts by weight of the crystalline polypropylene in the presence of an organic peroxide in a blending extruder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein said olefin copolymer rubber is an ethylene-propylene copolymer rubber or ethylene-propylene-non-conjugated diene rubber.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
A method according to claim 2, wherein said non-conjugated diene is dicyclopentadiene, 1,4-hexadiene, cyclooctadiene, methylidene norbornene or ethylidene norbornene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
