CONDUCTIVE POLYAMIDE COMPOSITION AND ARTICLE

摘要

An electrically conductive polyamide composition includes specific amounts of a polyamide-6, a poly(phenylene ether), talc, a hydrogenated block copolymer, carbon nanotubes, and a compatibilizing agent for the polyamide-6 and the poly(phenylene ether). The composition can contain little or no polyamide-6,6. The composition is useful for fabricating articles including automotive exterior side sill panels, and automotive exterior door panels.

主权项

1. A composition comprising the product of melt blending components comprising:
40 to 50 weight percent of a polyamide-6; 19 to 27 weight percent of a poly(phenylene ether) comprising a poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether); 15 to 20 weight percent of talc; 7 to 12 weight percent of a hydrogenated block copolymer comprising a polystyrene-poly(ethylene-propylene) diblock copolymer, a polystyrene-poly(ethylene-butylene)-polystyrene triblock copolymer, or a combination thereof; wherein the hydrogenated block copolymer has a polystyrene content of 28 to 37 weight percent; 1.1 to 1.7 weight percent of carbon nanotubes; and 0.2 to 1 weight percent of a compatibilizing agent for the polyamide-6 and the poly(phenylene ether); wherein all weight percent values are based on the total weight of the melt-blended components.
