Abstract

Modified SAN resin blend compositions that have good clarity and improved tensile properties compared to unmodified SAN resins are described. The compositions are blends of SAN resins and certain modifiers which are core-shell polymers with (A) a core composed principally of rubbery polymers, such as copolymers of diolefins with vinyl aromatic monomers, such as copolymers of butadiene with styrene, (B) an intermediate stage composed principally of hard polymers, such as polymers or copolymers of vinyl aromatic monomers, and (C) a shell composed principally of vinyl aromatic copolymers that contain hydroxyl functional groups or their equivalents (e.g. styrene/hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate copolymers).
