Abstract:
A blend of polymeric materials comprising(A) from about 1 to about 99 weight percent of at least one substantially random interpolymer containing(1) from about 1 to about 65 mole percent of polymer units derived from(a) at least one vinyl or vinylidene aromatic monomer,(b) at least one hindered aliphatic or cycloaliphatic vinyl or vinylidene monomer selected from the group consisting of vinylcyclohexane, vinylcyclohexene and 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene, or(c) a combination of (a) and (b), and(2) from about 35 to about 99 mole percent of polymer units derived from ethylene and/or at least one aliphatic .alpha.-olefin having from about 3 to about 20 carbon atoms; and(B) from about 1 to about 99 weight percent of(1) at least one homopolymer of a vinyl or vinylidene aromatic monomer,(2) at least one interpolymer of one or more vinyl or vinylidene aromatic monomer and one or more interpolymerizeable monomers other than ethylene and/or an aliphatic alpha olefin,(3) at least one of (1) or (2) which additionally contains an impact modifier, or(4) a combination of any two or more of (1), (2) or (3).
