Abstract

An improved high-impact polystyrene is disclosed comprising a blend of a polystyrene having a large rubber particle size and a polystyrene having a very fine rubber particle size, combined in such proportions that an improved balance of properties is achieved. Preferably, each polystyrene graft copolymer is prepared by a mass-suspension polymerization process and has a specific degree of grafting.
