Blends of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polystyrene (PS), and an SEBS triblock copolymer were extruded, pelletized, and injection molded. The binary HDPE-PS blends exhibit very poor ductibility; however, addition of the SEBS block copolymer greatly improves this characteristic but with an accomp

In this study, polystyrene-hydrogenated polybutadiene-polystyrene (SEBS) triblock copolymer was used as a compatibilizer for the blends of polystyrene (PS) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The morphology and static mechanical and impact properties of the blends were investigated by means of sca
## Abstract **Summary:** In the previous study, we observed compatibilizing effects of low density polyethylene (LDPE)/polystyrene (PS) with polystyreneβ__block__βpoly(ethyleneβ__co__βbutylene)β__block__βpolystyrene (SEBS), a triblock copolymer. Blends consisting of 70 wt.β% LDPE and 30 wt.β% PS we
