Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) / polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with the addition of maleic anhydride grafted polystyrene (KT-5) and polyolefin elastomer (POE) were melt processed in a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. The effect of KT-5 and POE content on the mechanical properties of ABS/PMMA was investigated. Experiment results indicate that KT-5 can improve the tensile strength and the composites are toughened effectively as the addition of POE. According to Orthogonal tests, it demonstrates that POE ha a greater effect on the blends than KT-5, and there exist no obvious interactivity between the two components.

Polypropylene (PP)/poly(acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene) (ABS) blends containing montmorillonite (MMT) compatibilized with polypropylene-grafted maleic anhydride were prepared by melt extrusion using twin screw extruder followed by injection molding. Mechanical properties were evaluated through tensile, flexural, and impact testing. The microstructure and formation of nanocomposites were assessed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Incorporation of polypropylene-grafted maleic anhydride and MMT into PP/ABS blend led to higher strength and stiffness but at the expense of toughness. Scanning electron micrographs revealed a fine and homogeneous dispersion of ABS phase in PP matrix. Both XRD and transmission electron microscopic analysis revealed the formation of intercalated clay silicate layer in PP/ABS nanocomposites.

The effects of polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride (PP-g-MA) compatibilizers on the morphology and mechanical properties of polyoxymethylene (POM)/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) blends were investigated. Two types of compatibilizers, PP-g-MA with maleic anhydride 0.50 wt% (PP-g-MA1) and PP-g-MA with maleic anhydride 1.31 wt% (PP-g-MA2) were used to study the interfacial adhesion of POM and ABS. POM/ABS blends with and without PP-g-MA compatibilizer were prepared by an internal mixer and molded by compression molding. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to investigate the morphology of ABS phase in POM matrix. The results found that POM/ABS blends clearly demonstrated a two phase separation of dispersed ABS phase and the POM matrix phase, and ABS phase dispersed as spherical domains in POM matrix in a range of ABS 10-30 wt% and the blends containing ABS more than 30 wt% showed the elongated structure of ABS phase. The addition of PP-g-MA could improve the interfacial adhesion of POM/ABS blends due to the domain size of ABS phase decreased after adding PP-g-MA. The mechanical properties showed that the impact strength of POM/ABS blends decreased in a range of 10-20 wt% and did not change after 20 wt%. The addition of PP-g-MA did not change the impact strength of POM/ABS blends. The Young’s modulus of POM/ABS blends increased up to 30 wt% of ABS and then decreased. While the blends showed the decrease of tensile strength and percent strain at break with increasing ABS content. The addition of PP-g-MA increased the tensile strength of POM/ABS blends in a range of 30-40 wt% of ABS. The above results indicated that the morphology had an effect on the mechanical properties of polymer blends.

Polyoxymethylene/thermoplastic polyamide elastomer (POM/TPAE) blends were prepared through melt extrusion in an attempt to improve the toughness and electrical properties of POM. The TPAE used in the study had the permanent antistatic effect, and its brand was MV2080. Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer grafted maleic anhydride (ABS-g-MAH) was added while preparing the POM/TPAE blends to improve the compatibility between TPAE and POM. The effects of TPAE and ABS-g-MAH on the morphologies, melting crystallization, dynamic mechanical analysis, surface resistivity and mechanical properties were examined in detail with various techniques. It was found that after adding 15 phr MV2080 as the modifier, the distribution of MV2080 in the blends was presented as many continuous long strips, which can be called “antistatic networks.” When using ABS-g-MAH as a compatibilizer, the surface resistivity of the samples 5#, 6#, and 7# which all containing 15 phr MV2080 with the best antistatic properties reached 107 Ω, and the impact strength of the above samples was all increased by more than 66%.

Thermoplastic materials gain their characteristic properties because of their ability to crystalline from the melt i.e. liquid to semi crystalline solids. Many authors have made several efforts in blending of various systems viz. binary, tertiary etc. to be compatible with each other to achieve enhancement of target properties. In this connection ABS, PC and its blends are studied for various applications starting from compact disc to various parts for automobiles. But there is a never ending challenge in selecting the suitable compatibilizer for two or more materials which are to be blended. Due to the recycle ability of thermoplastic materials like Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, Poly Ethylene, Poly Propylene polycarbonate invites the development of their blends/composites which will fulfill day-to-day needs of present and future generations. Hence an attempt is made in the present paper to do review on the mechanical properties viz. tensile, flexural and impact of a novel blended materials i.e. polycarbonate, glass filled polycarbonate and their blends along with the results exist in the literature.

Mechanical and morphological properties of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)/zinc oxide (ZnO) nanocomposites used ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) as compatibilizer were investigated. The ABS/ZnO nanocomposites without and with EVA 4 wt% were prepared by melting-blend with an internal mixer. The results showed that the addition of ZnO nanoparticles did not improve the mechanical properties of ABS/ZnO nanocomposites. The impact strength of the ABS/ZnO nanocomposites decreased with increasing ZnO content. The addition of EVA in ABS showed a decrease the impact strength but increased after adding ZnO in ABS/EVA matrix. The ABS/ZnO nanocomposites with EVA was higher the percent strain at break, but lower Young’s modulus, tensile strength and impact strength than the neat ABS and ABS/ZnO nanocomposites. The percent strain at break of ABS/ZnO nanocomposites increased with incorporation of EVA all ZnO compositions. However, the poor compatibility between ethylene in EVA and ABS matrix reduced as most of the mechanical properties of ABS/EVA/ZnO nanocomposites. The ZnO particle distributions in nanocomposites were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which observed that ZnO particles agglomerated in ABS and ABS/EVA matrix. The fractured surfaces of impact test samples were also observed through SEM and revealed that the ductile fracture of ABS was converted to brittle fracture with addition of ZnO.

Abstract Waste high-density polyethylene (w-HDPE)/ acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)/ground tire rubber (GTR) have been melt blended by two-roll milling. Ternary blends of w-HDPE/ABS/GTR have been observed to be incompatible in the composition range studied which revealed in the deteriorated mechanical properties. Two main types of compatibilizers such as an olefin-maleic anhydride copolymer based one synthesized by the authors and a commercial maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MA-g-PP) have been chosen for enhancing compatibility between the components ergo the mechanical properties. For characterizing tensile and impact properties of the blends mechanical tests have been carried out besides the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The most advantageous result in industrial practice can be that the experimental additive allows to apply higher GTR concentration ergo gives the opportunity to recycle higher level of GTR.
