“…Tensile strength of ABS polymer decreased upon addition of Hypalon; the data continued to decrease with increase in / d . This implied that the elastomer weakens the polymer structure due to the reduction of the effective matrix cross-section caused by the elastomer phase, similar to other studies [13][14][15][16][17]. Tensile strength data were analyzed using predictive models, Eqs.…”

Impact behavior and tensile properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) terpolyer=Chlorsulfonated Polyethylene (CSM) blends are studied at CSM concentrations of 0 to 30.6 vol%. The data are presented as functions of CSM content. Predictive models have been employed to analyze the tensile properties. Impact behavior has been analyzed on the basis of interphase adhesion. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been used to study the adhesion between the matrix and the elastomeric phase.

“…This would of course be of some advantage in that the filler adoptability of ABS matrix will be enhanced [6]. Decrease in modulus of polymer materials upon addition of elastomers has been observed earlier [13][14][15].…”

The impact strength and the tensile behavior of an impact grade of isotactic polypropylene (impact i-pp)=chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM) rubber blends are studied at the CSM rubber concentrations 0 to 23.4 vol%. The impact strength, which increased with CSM rubber concentration, has been analyzed on the basis of the interphase adhesion and crazing mechanisms. Tensile modulus and strength decreased whereas breaking elongation increased with increase in CSM rubber content. Predictive models have been used to explain the tensile modulus and strength properties. Scanning electron microscopy has been employed to study the phase structure.

“…It increases continuously with increasing elastomer up to 80 vol.% elastomer content, where it exhibits a maximum. A drastic decrease was observed in the elongation-at-break of PP/EPDM blends prepared with a random copolymer [40] in spite of the fact that PP is often modified with EPDM elastomers because of their good compatibility [7,8,10]. In the present case, the maximum may originate from a special morphology, although the standard deviation of the determination of elongation-at-break is too large to draw such far-reaching conclusions.…”
