Abstract

This study investigated the effect of blending poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (SMA) on the mechanical and thermal properties of nylon-6/polyether block amide (PEBA) blend. In these blends, nylon-6 was toughened with PEBA using SMA as the compatibilizer. All the blends were prepared via direct melt compounding using a co-rotating twin screw extruder. The amount of PEBA added affected the crystallization characteristics and the relative ratio of γ and α crystalline phases of Nylon 6. The crystallization rate of Nylon 6 was also affected by the cooling rate and the amount of PEBA added. The results of mechanical tests showed that the tensile properties, flexural properties, and impact strengths of the nylon-6/PEBA were all increased when blended with 1 wt% of SMA, at both 23 and −20 °C. However, for neat nylon-6, the impact strength was not affected despite that both tensile and flexural properties were increased by the blending of SMA. The results indicated that SMA can increase the compatibility between nylon-6 and PEBA, thus expanding the usage of nylon-6/PEBA blend in low-temperature applications.
