Abstract

A thermoplastic composition is described that comprises (i) from 1 to 99 percent by weight of the total composition of at least one thermoplastic copolymer, for example, styrene block copolymers, and (ii) from 1 to 99 percent by weight of the total composition of at least one homogeneously branched ethylene/α-olefin interpolymer, for example ethylene/1-octene, having a density of less than or equal to 0.899 g/cc and a Brookfield viscosity of greater than 500 cP (350° F.).
