A thermoplastic composition comprises, based on the total weight of the composition: 51-90 wt% polyester, 10-49 wt% ABS impact modifier; 0-20 wt% omultifunctional epoxy compound; 0-40 wt% filler; 0-2 wt% fibrillated fluoropolymer; and more than 0 to 5 wt% of a stabilizer composition. An article blow molded or injection molded from the composition has a multi-axial impact total energy from 30-100 Joules at -30°C and a ductility of more than 90%; a permeability of more than 0 and less than or equal to 1.5g/m2-day to ASTM D 471-98 Fuel C, measured after exposure to ASTM D 471-98 Fuel C vapor for 20 weeks at 40°C; an MVR of 1-20 cc/10 min., measured at 265°C; a flexural modulus of greater than 1300 MPa; and retains at least 75% of its initial tensile elongation at break, after exposure to Fuel E85 for 28 days at 70°C. |
