Abstract: Compositions are described comprising a) polyoxymethylene, b) thermoplastic elastomer having active hydrogen atoms, c) polyoxymethylene which differs from component a) and contains active hydrogen atoms, d) reagent for covalent coupling of components b) and c), and e) if appropriate, another impact modifier, which differs from component b). The compositions feature improved toughness and can be used for production of moldings.

Abstract: Multiblock copolymers are described and contain the structural unit of formula I -A-O—R1—O—CO—(R2—CO—)m—X-D-X—(CO—R2)m—CO—X—??(I), where A is a radical derived from a homo- or copolyoxymethylene, R1 is an alkylene radical-having at least two carbon atoms or a cycloalkylene radical, R2 is a direct carbon-carbon bond, or an alkylene, cycloalkylene, arylene, or aralkylene radical, X is selected from —O—, —S—, or —NH—, D is a divalent radical B which is a radical of a hydroxy-terminated, mercaptan-terminated, or amino-terminated polymer which derives from polyalkylene glycols, polyvinyl ethers, polyvinyl ether-alkene copolymers, polyvinyl esters, polyvinyl ester-alkene copolymers, polyvinyl alcohols, polyvinyl alcohol-alkene copolymers, polyvinylaromatics, polyacrylates, polymethacrylates, polyacetals, polycarbonates, polyesters, polyamides, polyimines, polyetherester elastomers, polyetheramide elastomers, polyalkadienes, polyurethanes, polyureas, polysiloxanes, or a triblock copolymer radical -PAO-B-PAO-, wh
