Zusammenfassung:	A polymer blend composition having improved physical properties comprises (i) 70% to 95% by weight of a blend of a styrene maleic anhydride (SMA) copolymer, e.g., rubber modified styrene maleic anhydride copolymer and a styrene polymer e.g., polystyrene or high impact polystyrene (HIPS) and (ii) from 30% to 5% by weight of an acrylic copolymer, e.g., a rubber modified styrene methyl methacrylate (SMMA) copolymer which acts as a compatibilizer for the SMA copolymer, which may be a regrind, and the styrene polymer. This polymer blend composition has good impact strength and elongation properties. The weight percent ratio of the SMA copolymer to styrene polymer in component (i) may be 95:5 or 5:95 based on the total weight of component (i). The polymer blend composition may be extruded into sheet and thermoformed into an article, e.g., a container for packaged foods or may be co-extruded to produce a laminated article.
