Abstract

The effect of crosslinking of polyamide 11 and butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer (nitrile rubber) was studied. The effect of static and dynamic crosslinking on blending are described. Static and dynamic crosslinking do not significantly improve impact strength of low-rubber-content PA11/NBR blends. For blends with dynamic crosslinking and high rubber contents, mechanical properties including impact strength improve. Thermal behavior of crosslinked PA11/NBR blends were studied by DSC and DMA. SEM was used for investigation of the effect of crosslinking on particle size and particle size distribution, phase morphology, and fracture surface morphology. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
