## Abstract **Summary:** The effectiveness of some thermoplastic elastomers grafted with maleic anhydride (MA) or with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) as compatibilizer precursors (CPs) for blends of low density polyethylene (LDPE) with polyamideโ6 (PA) has been studied. The CPs were produced by grafti

## SYNOPSIS T h e modification of ethylene-propylene copolymer (EP) has been accomplished by radical initiators. T h e resulting EP-graft-acrylic acid (EP-g-AA) has been used to obtain ternary PA/EP/EP-g-AA blends by melt mixing. Different blend morphologies were observed by scanning electron micro
In a blend of two immiscible polymers a controlled morphology can be obtained by adding a block or graft copolymer as compatibilizer. In the present work blends of low-density polyethylene (PE) and polyamide-6 (PA-6) were prepared by melt mixing the polymers in a co-rotating, intermeshing twin-screw
## Abstract **Summary:** Polyesters and polyolefins form highly incompatible blends with poor properties and gross morphology that hinder any practical applications. In this work, the possibility to compatibilize an incompatible blend of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) with ethylene vinyl acetat
