Overview: New opportunities for modifying thermoplastics and thermosets without the need for solid fillers or reinforcements are presented by four unusual and, for the most part, brand-new thermoplastic resins. This paper briefs about four reports on these developments. They are new grades of polyphenylene oxide (PPO) improve processing and properties of TP elastomers, thermoset SMC/BMC, and epoxies. Polypropylene films and molded parts can be toughened with mLLDPE, which is surprisingly compatible with PP. An unusual TPE acts as a permanent anti-stat for commodity and engineering plastics. Metallocene-catalyzed ethylene-styrene interpolymers can compatibilize PS/PE blends.
