The concurrent influence of the processing aid (Paraloid K 120N) and t
he carbon black ratio, as well as the nature and the ratio of the impa
ct modifier (CPE 3615 and Kane Ace B56 A) on the main physico-mechanic
al characteristics of the poly(vinyl chloride)-based unplasticized mix
tures have been studied. The results obtained, processed mathematicall
y and plotted graphically in the form of response surfaces, evidenced
that the improvement of certain physico-mechanical properties becomes
possible by the introduction of 2.5 parts and 5.0 parts carbon black i
nto these compounds. This is due to the introduction of impact modifie
rs and processing aids into the mixtures.
