<p>Filled blends of (A) carbonate polymers and (B) monovinylidene aromatic copolymers are prepared having improved combinations of resistance to linear thermal expansion and low temperature toughness. A wax additive (C) is employed which improves the low temperature toughness of the filled polymer blend. The wax additive is preferably ester wax, acid wax, polyethylene wax, or a blend of two or more of these waxes, with ester wax being the preferred wax. Preferably, specifically shaped, small particle size fillers (D) are employed which provide the resistance to linear thermal expansion and maintain the impact resistance of the filled blend. Optionally, the blend also comprises a rubber impact modifier (E) to provide improved toughness in molded articles prepared from the filled blend. These components are employed generally in amounts of from 50 to 95 percent by weight (A) and from 5 to 50 percent by weight (B) based on weight of components (A), (B) and (E); from 0.1 to 5 percent by weight (C) and from 1 to 17 percent by weight (D) based on weight of components (A, B, C, D and E); and optionally from 1 to 20 percent by weight (E) based on weight of components (A), (B) and (E).</p> |
