Abstract

Abstract Impact modified thermoplastic blends of components A, B and optionally C, consisting of: A) from 99 to 60 percent by weight of a polymeric rigid matrix consisting of a1) 60-99.5 percent by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound present as copolymerized units, a2) 0.5-20 percent by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic anhydride present as copolymerized units and a3) 014 35 percent by weight of an alkenylnitrile present as copolymerized units, B) from 1 to 40 percent by weight of a polymeric flexibilizing component consisting of b1) 100-60 percent by weight of a monomer from the group of the 1,4-dienes which is present as copolymerized units and b2) 0-40 percent by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound present as copolymerized units. and optionally C) customary additives in customary amounts, the polymers of flexibilizing component B having amino end groups, are used for producing moldings.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 225 words
An impact modified thermoplastic blend of components A, B and optionally C, consisting of: A) from 99 to 60 percent by weight, based on the sum of A and B, of a polymeric rigid matrix consisting of a1) 60-99.5 percent by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound present as copolymerized units, a2) 0.5-20 percent by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic anhydride present as copolymerized units and a3) 0-35 percent by weight of an alkenylnitrile present as copolymerized units, the weight percentages in each case being based on the sum of a1, a2 and a3, B) from 1 to 40 percent by weight, based on the sum of A and B, of a polymeric flexibilizing component consisting of a modified block copolymer of b1) 91-60 percent by weight of the monomer 1,4-butadiene which is present as copolymerized units and b2) 9-40 percent by weight of styrene present as copolymerized units, the weight percentages in each case being based on the sum of b1 and b2 and also C) from 0 to 30 percent by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the sum of components A and B, of customary additives, wherein the polymers of flexibilizing component B have been modified by substitution with amino groups only at the chain ends and have only one amino end group per chain end at the chain end.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 225 words
An impact modified thermoplastic blend of components A, B and optionally C, consisting of: A) from 99 to 60 percent by weight, based on the sum of A and B, of a polymeric rigid matrix consisting of a1) 60-99.5 percent by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound present as copolymerized units, a2) 0.5-20 percent by weight of an unsaturated carboxylic anhydride present as copolymerized units and a3) 0-35 percent by weight of an alkenylnitrile present as copolymerized units, the weight percentages in each case being based on the sum of a1, a2 and a3, B) from 1 to 40 percent by weight, based on the sum of A and B, of a polymeric flexibilizing component consisting of a modified block copolymer of b1) 91-60 percent by weight of the monomer 1,4-butadiene which is present as copolymerized units and b2) 9-40 percent by weight of styrene present as copolymerized units, the weight percentages in each case being based on the sum of b1 and b2 and also C) from 0 to 30 percent by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the sum of components A and B, of customary additives, wherein the polymers of flexibilizing component B have been modified by substitution with amino groups only at the chain ends and have only one amino end group per chain end at the chain end.
