Abstract

Disclosed is a method of preparing a thermoplastic resin composition that includes combining a ground crosslinked rubber with a thermoplastic resin and a compatibilizer based on a paraffinic oil to form a blend thermoplastic composition. The ground crosslinked rubber has an average particle size of about 80 mesh or smaller. The thermoplastic resin includes at least one polyolefinic resin. The ground crosslinked rubber is included in amounts of up to about 70% by weight, based on the weight of the blend thermoplastic composition.
