Compatibilizers for producing nanocomposites, microcomposites and polymer blends and process for obtaining them

摘要

The present invention relates to compatibilizers to be used for obtaining materials called polyolefin nanocomposites, microcomposites and polymer blends, and it includes the process for obtaining such compatibilizers. Such compatibilizers are obtained from the monomers of the organic compounds itaconic acid (ITA) or its monooctadecyl itaconate (MODIT) derivative. The compatibilizers are polyolefins grafted with those monomers, which are characterized by having functional groups with a hydrophilic character and a polymer backbone with a hydrophobic character. The compatibilizers of this invention are characterized by having controlled degrees of grafting of these monomers, and they can be used optimally in various applications. It also relates to the process for obtaining such compatibilizers.
