Abstract
Finally, the obtained core-shell structured particles were used to toughen a PMMA matrix. The tensile properties of the modified PMMA matrix were investigated. The micro-morphology of modified PMMA was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Tensile tests as well as TEM and SEM analyses demonstrated that the main mechanism of deformation operating in the EP(D)M-toughened PMMA matrix is shear yielding, accompanied by debonding and cavitation processes.
