Waste high-density polyethylene (w-HDPE)/ acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS)/ground tire rubber (GTR) have been melt blended by two-roll milling. Ternary blends of w-HDPE/ABS/GTR have been observed to be incompatible in the composition range studied which revealed in the deteriorated mechanical properties. Two main types of compatibilizers such as an experimental olefin-maleic anhydride copolymer based one synthesized by the authors and a commercial maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MA-g-PP) have been chosen for enhancing compatibility between the components ergo the mechanical properties. For characterizing tensile and impact properties of the blends mechanical tests have been carried out besides the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The most advantageous result in industrial practice can be that the experimental additive allows to apply higher GTR concentration ergo gives the opportunity to recycle higher level of GTR.

“…High structural integrity, therefore resistance against soil-loading pipe collapse and a high degree of exibility along its length makes it useful as a subsurface irrigation buried pipe. HDPE based 100% waste resource blend containing 25% LDPE and 5% ABS was studied by San-Gil-Leon et al [29] with the purpose of assessing its suitability for construction of tra c signs. The product showed compliance with regulations applied to materials used in preparation of that eld.…”
