Notes:
The properties of the graft polymers of styrene, acrylonitrile, and vinyl acetate onto polybutadiene rubber that were prepared for the modification of graft polymers of styrene and acrylonitrile onto polybutadiene (ABS polymers) by emulsion polymerization up to a high degree of conversion have been studied and discussed. Both the impact strength and notched impact strength of the graft polymers have been found to remarkably increase with a rising quantity of vinyl acetate, in particular, in the case of styrene substitution, whereas in the case of acrylonitrile substitution by vinyl acetate, the two characteristics become noticeably poorer. The effects of the vinyl acetate amount and the type of substituted monomers on bending strength, tensile strength, Vicat softening point, and glass transition temperature of the graft polymers are also clearly different. Furthermore, the properties of the above graft polymers blended with styrene/acrylonitrile copolymers have been studied.
