Abstract
Rubber modification of poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO)/cr osslinked polystyrene (CPS) semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (se mi-IPNs) was studied using polybutadiene (PB), a linear styrene-butadi ene-styrene (SBS) triblock cocpolymer and a star-shaped SBS multi-bloc k copolymer, at different composition ratios. The materials, obtained by reactive compression moulding of mixtures containing PPO, an elasto mer, styrenic monomers and crosslinker (divinylbenzene), show a very h igh glass transition temperature (T(g)), high dimensional stability an d good impact properties.
