Abstract:
A resin composition comprises a poly(arylene ether); a polyamide; an impact modifier; an electrically conductive filler; and an additive having greater than or equal to four conjugated double bonds and a melting temperature less than or equal to 400°C.
Abstract:
A composition comprises a poly(arylene ether), a polyamide, electrically conductive carbon black, a fibrous filler, a first impact modifier and a second impact modifier. A method to make the composition and vehicle parts made from the composition are also provided.
Abstract:
A thermoplastic composition comprises a compatibilized poly(arylene ether)/polyamide composition and an adhesion promoter selected from the group consisting of alpha-beta unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymers, polymers with pendant epoxy groups and combinations of two or more of the foregoing.
Abstract:
A method of preparing a polycarbonate nanocomposite comprising forming a reactant mixture comprising a nanomaterial, a solvent, a dihydroxy compound and an activated carbonate; and polymerizing the dihydroxy compound and the activated carbonate in the presence of the solvent to form the polycarbonate nanocomposite is disclosed. Also disclosed are polycarbonate nanocomposites prepared in accordance with this method, and thermoplastic compositions comprising the polycarbonate nanocomposites.
Abstract:
A method of making a resin composition comprises melt mixing a first polymer comprising a polyamide powder or a polyester powder with a fluoropolymer at a temperature below a softening temperature of the fluoropolymer to form a first melt blend; fibrillating the fluoropolymer in the first melt blend to form a fibrillar network in the first melt blend; and melt mixing the first melt blend having the fibrillar network with i) a poly(arylene ether) and a compatibilizing agent or ii) a poly(arylene ether) and a reaction product of the poly(arylene) and a compatibilizing agent.
