Abstract
Polymer blend compositions having an advantageous combination of low temperature toughness, solvent resistance, scratch resistance and paintability comprise from about 19 to about 64 weight percent of a mass, solution, mass/suspension or mass/solution polymerized rubber modified monovinylidene aromatic/ethylenically unsaturated nitrile polymer; from about 35 to about 80 weight percent of certain selected polyester-based elastomeric thermoplastic polyurethane ingredients; and from about 1 to about 30 weight percent of a relatively high rubber content emulsion polymerized rubber modified graft copolymer ingredient. The resulting polymer blend compositions are especially well suited for use in the preparation of molded articles intended for use in relatively low temperature environments including, for example, in various motor vehicle and/or recreational vehicle applications, as freezer and refrigerator liners, snow removal equipment housings or accessories, and the like.
