Abstract
Polymer blend compositions comprise (a) a polyphenylene ether polymer, (b) a polyphthalamide comprising the reaction product of (i) hexamethylene diamine or a mixture of hexamethylene diamine and trimethylhexamethylene diamine, and (ii) terephthalic acid, and optionally (iii) at least one acid selected from the group consisting of isophthalic acid and adipic acid, provided that a mixture of said diamines is employed if reactant (iii) is absent, and (c) at least one compatibilizer. The compositions may further include an aliphatic polyamide and/or an impact modifier.
