PCT No. PCT/FI95/00685 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 20, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 20, 1997 PCT Filed Dec. 15, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/20228 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 4, 1996A thermoplastic elastomer is achieved by absorbing an acrylate monomer, an initiator and eventually a diacrylate into polyolefin particles, after which the temperature is raised and the acrylate polymerises into the polyolefin and forms a dispersed phase, which has been functionalized by copolymerising a functional monomer together with the acrylate. As a compatibiliser a grafter polyolefin is used, which is melt-blended after the polymerisation into the thermoplastic elastomer or before the polymerisation into the polyolefin. |
