The present invention relates to thermoplastic compositions comprising as impact modifier a rubber containing graft polymer prepared by the process of emulsion polymerization and recovered by a special process controlling and adjusting the pH value, the use of the thermoplastic compositions in the production of molded bodies, and to the molded, bodies themselves. The present invention relates also to thermoplastic compositions comprising a polymeric impact modifier with a core-shell structure made by a multistage process and recovered by a special process controlling and adjusting the pH value comprising at least one gradient polymer the use of the thermoplastic compositions in the production of molded bodies, and to the molded, bodies themselves.
