Abstract
To overcome drawbacks of the nylon 6/poly (acrylonitrile-co-butadiene-co-styrene) (ABS) blend, nylon 6 blend with poly (acrylonitrile - co-styrene - co-acrylic rubber) (ASA) which containing poly (butyl acrylate) as a rubber phase in substitute of poly (butadiene) in ABS, was examined. Poly (styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (SMA) containing 25 wt% of maleic anhydride (MA) or poly (styrene- co-acrylo-nitrile-co-maleic anhydride) (SANMA) containing less than 3 wt% MA was used as a compatibilizer to fabricate blends having high impact strength. Changes in the mechanical properties of nylon 6/ASA blend with compatibilizer content were similar with those of nylon 6/ABS blend. Blends haying high impact strength was produced when blends contained more than about 20 wt% rubber. Blends containing SAM or SANMA as a compatibilizer were stayed in a injection molding machine at the molding temperature and afterwards specimens for the examination of the impact strength was prepared. Impact strength of blends containing SMA was decreased with retention time, while that of blends containing SANMA was not changed with retention time.
