REDUCED COST PROCESS FOR PRODUCING CUSTOMIZED THERMOPLASTIC RESINS

摘要

Disclosed is a customized thermoplastic resin having a thermoplastic resin body and a coating on the thermoplastic resin body. The coating contains a hydrophobic resin component and at least one additive. The hydrophobic resin component of the coating has an onset temperature for its melt processing range below the onset temperature for the melt processing range of the thermoplastic resin body. The customized thermoplastic resins of the invention may be produced more efficiently than conventional customized thermoplastic resins, while the customized thermoplastic resins of the invention may be used in the same methods as conventional materials to produce many useful articles.
