A process for producing a thermoplastic molding composition is disclosed. The process entails introducing a solid polymeric resin, optionally containing residual moisture, into an extruder, operating under conditions designed to melt the resin and charging water into the melt while in the extruder to yield wet, molten resin that contains water in an amount of at least about 2 percent. The wet, molten resin is then devolatilized to yield dry resin having water content not exceeding 0.3 percent. Molding compositions thus produced have improved properties. In a preferred embodiment, the process results in a molding composition that contains a fine dispersion of a discontinuous phase in a continuous polymeric phase. |
