Polyethylene-polystyrene (PE-PS) blends involving three samples of PS of different molecular weight were obtained. Blending was performed on rolling mills at temperatures and shear stresses chosen so as to ensure maximum dispersion of components but to avoid chain scission. Scanning electron microsc
## Abstract __In situ__ compatibilization of polypropylene (PP) and polystyrene (PS) was achieved by combinative application of tetraethyl thiuram disulfide (TETD) as degradation inhibitor and diβ__tert__βbutyl peroxide as degradation initiator in the process of reactive extrusion. The PP/PS blends
The compatibilization of mixtures of polyolefins or of polyolefins with polystyrene using either liquid polybutadiene (l-PB)/organic peroxide or styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) block copolymers was investigated. Tensile impact strength was chosen as a measure of compatibility. Binary blends LDPE/hig
