A nonsegregating dry blend of 90-30 weight percent of elongated polymer pellets having an aspect ratio, Ap, of about 3-23 and a density of about 0.85-1.5 g/cm3 with 10-70 weight percent of glass fibers having an aspect ratio, Ag, of 3.7-23, the Ap/Ag ratio being about 0.4-1.6, especially 0.8-1.2, can be fed directly to melt-fabricating equipment without first melt-blending the polymer pellets with the glass fibers and fabricated into articles having a substantially uniform glass content. |
