Abstract:

A vinly chloride-butyl acrylate-methly methacrylate copolymer elastomer (VCE) was used to modify PVC resin for improvement of impact resistance, and a comparative investigation was also carried out for the modification effect on PVC with MBS, ACR and CPE. The rheological, mechanical and thermal deformation properties of the modified PVC resins were investigated, and their cross-sectional morphologies were observed. In the view of the comparative results, the modified PVC resins presented a decrease in tensile strength and bending strength but an increase in impact strength and elongation at break increased. Moreover, their thermal deformation temperature decreased with an increase of VCE content. VCE was found to have better modification effect than ACR and CPE but a similar effect with MBS. VCE shows a significant toughening effect on PVC, and therefore it can be taken as a promising impact modifier for PVC.

Key words: polyvinyl chloride, vinyl chloride copolymer elastomer, impact modifier, rheological property
