Dynamically vulcanized blends of polyethylene-octene elastomer and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer

▶ TPVs based on POE/EPDM blends were prepared by dynamic vulcanization. ▶ Mechanical properties of POE could be promoted by the incorporation of EPDM. ▶ It is striking that the permanent deformation of POE is decreased remarkably. ▶ Storage modulus of POE/EPDM TPVs was higher that that of POE.
