The present invention relates to a polymer blend comprising, (A) 65 to 96 percent by weight of a first polymer; (B) 4 to 35 percent by weight of a second polymer, wherein the second polymer is obtainable by (i) anionic polymerization in the presence of a polymerization initiator in an organic solvent, and (ii) modification of the polymer chain ends obtained in (i) by addition and reaction of at least one compound. The present invention also relates to a polymer composition, comprising said polymer blend; to a method for the preparation of a crosslinked elastomeric polymer; to a crosslinked elastomeric polymer obtainable according to said method and to an article, comprising either said polymer composition or said crosslinked elastomeric polymer. |
