Abstract

Novel polymeric blends comprising from 45-90% by weight of at least one vinylaromatic resinous material, 10-55% by weight of at least one vinylidene chloride polymer and, optionally but preferably, an effective amount of at least one blowing or expansion agent. The invention blends provide products having improved oxygen and water permeability, improved toughness, and improved flammability resistance.
