Abstract:
1. A shaped polymer article comprising: a blow molded hollow member including a layer with an interior surface and an exterior surface and having a wall thickness between the interior surface and the exterior surface, the layer being made from a fiber reinforced polymeric composition comprising, on a weight percent basis: a) a linear polyphenylene sulfide having a melt viscosity of from about 20 Pa·s to about 500 Pa·s; b) reinforcing fibers present in the composition in an amount from about 10% to about 50% by weight; c) an organosilane coupling agent present in the composition in an amount from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight; d) a reactive impact modifier reactive with the organosilane coupling agent, the reactive impact modifier being present in an amount from about 0.5% to about 20% by weight, whereby the fiber reinforced polymeric composition exhibits a DTUL of at least 200° C. and a low shear melt viscosity measured at 1 s wherein the member comprises angles in multiple directions.
