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.

Abstract: Novel composite polymer particles are obtained, under specified conditions, by preparing an aqueous suspension comprising 100 parts by weight of propylene polymer particles, 5 - 200 parts of a vinyl or vinylidene monomer, and a specific polymerization initiator; heating the aqueous suspension to impregnate the propylene polymer particles with the monomer; and then raising the temperature of the aqueous suspension to complete polymerization of the monomer. The resultant composite polymer is improved in molding, mechanical, chemical and physical properties and is useful as molding or forming material as it is or as a blend with another polymeric material.
