The effect of rubber particle size on the impact properties of high impact polystyrene (HIPS) blends

The impact fracture of nominally identical high impact polystyrene resins having different and well‐characterized rubber particle size distributions is discussed. A numerical model for craze termination is presented and its predictions are compared with experimental data. An alternative explanation...

Zusammenfassung:The impact fracture of nominally identical high impact polystyrene resins having different and well‐characterized rubber particle size distributions is discussed. A numerical model for craze termination is presented and its predictions are compared with experimental data. An alternative explanation for the observed effect of particle size on fracture energy is considered.
