Abstract

The alloy of Nylon6/Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS), with the ratio of 90/10, was prepared with ABS grafted with the maleic anhydride (ABS-g-MAH), as the compatibilizer. The mechanical tests’ results showed that the impact strength of the alloy with the compatibilizer was improved by about 146%. t can be seen from the scanning electron microscope (SEM) photographs that the compatibility was improved by the addition of ABS-g-MAH. The melting behavior and isothermal crystallization kinetics of Nylon6/ABS/ABS-g-MAH blends were investigated using DSC. The melting behavior was largely affected by the crystallization temperature and the presence of ABS-g-MAH.
