High impact resistant compositions comprise:… (a) 25-95% by weight of aromatic polyester;… (b) 1 to 50% by weight of aromatic polycarbonate;… (c) the balance to make 100% of core/shell polymer comprising a first elastomeric phase comprising 75 to 99.8% by weight of (C1-C6)-alkyl acrylate units, 0.1 to 5% cross-linking monomer units, 0.1 to 5% graft-linking monomer units, and final rigid thermoplastic phase, the weight ratio of first to final stages being 25 to 95: 75 to 5 based on a total of 100 parts. The polyester usually used is poly(ethyleneterephthalate) and the compositions are very suitable for making injection moulded articles and/or glass fibre reinforced articles. |
