Polyamide 6 (PA6)-filled polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) at different compositions has been successfully prepared in a corotating twin screw extruder where PTFE acts as the polymer matrix and PA6 as the dispersed phase. The morphology and impact properties of these blends were investigated using a scanning electron microscope. The presence of PA6 particles dispersed in the PTFE continuous phase exhibited a coarse morphology. Increasing PA6 contents in the blend improved the impact properties at weak deformation. It was found that the interfacial adhesion played an important role in the creation of an interphase that was formed by the interaction between the PTFE and PA6. This induced an improvement in impact properties. In addition, the optimum impact properties were obtained when the content of PA6 is 30 vol%.
