An elastic blend is made from at least two incompatible polymers and a compatibilizer selected to improve miscibility of the incompatible polymers. For example, a blend of olefinic plastomers and elastomeric styrenic block copolymers, and a compatibilizer having components of the olefinic plastomer and sytrenic block copolymer elastomer yields an inexpensive elastic blend material with adequate elastic properties for use in personal care products. |
