| abstract |
Flexible partially grafted thermoplastic compositions formed by melt-blending under high shear conditions a thermoplastic material having available graft sites, this thermoplastic material being at least one continuous phase of the composition, an ethylene copolymer containing a monocarboxylic acid unsaturated and a polymeric grafting agent having reactive groups capable of reacting with the monocarboxylic acid in the ethylene copolymer and with the grafting sites available in the thermoplastic material. These compositions are useful in many molding, coating and adhesion applications. |
