  • Patent number: 4837138
    Abstract: A colored resin composition characterized in that it has a matrix of a thermoplastic polymer (A), typically a polyester, and a thermoplastic polymer (B), typically a styrene polymer, which is dispersed in the matrix and is separated in phase from the matrix, and the polymer (B) is filled with substantially the entire quantity of a colorant. Since the colorant is blended in only the dispersed phase polymer (B), deterioration due to the colorant of various characteristics, such as bleed-out of the colorant, is prevented in the colored resin coposition according to this invention.

  • Patent number: 4368280
    Abstract: A composition essentially consisting of a monoolefin copolymer rubber such as an ethylene-propylene copolymer rubber and a polyolefin resin such as polypropylene is granulated and then suspended, by stirring, in water containing a suspending agent. Then, a cross-linking agent is dispersed in the resulting suspension and introduced into the granules at a temperature lower than the decomposition temperature of the cross-linking agent to obtain a granular composition uniformly impregnated with the cross-linking agent. This composition is used as such or as a masterbatch to prepare partially cross-linked thermoplastic elastomers. Such compositions having a cross-linking agent content of not greater than 5% by weight based on the amount of the rubber component can be converted into partially cross-linked thermoplastic elastomers having a uniform degree of cross-linking, simply by heating the impregnated granules statically to effect the cross-linking reaction.
