Abstract:
1. A thermoplastic composition comprising: 35 to 45 weight percent of a poly(arylene ether) having an intrinsic viscosity greater than 0.25 dl/g as measured in chloroform at 25° C., 5 to 30 weight percent of a styrenic resin, and 20 to 45 weight percent of a polyolefin resin comprising a mixture of medium density polyethylene and a high density polyethylene, wherein weight percent is based on the total weight of the composition, the thermoplastic composition has a flexural modulus of 400-1000 Megapascals (MPa) as determined by ASTM D790-03, and comprises a continuous polyolefin phase and dispersed poly(arylene ether) particles and the poly(arylene ether) particles have an average diameter less than 5 micrometers.
