Apart from the most important factors for homopolymers, such as orientation and crystallization phenomena, the mechanical properties of two-phase systems are also influenced, to a large extent, by the particle size and distribution in the disperse phase.

The second one suggests that it be better to choose the graft copolymer with the matrix polymer as the backbone and the disperse phase polymer as grafts.

As expected, blends containing HDPE show large particles of several micormeter, dispersed phase with large variation of domain size, particles detached from the matrix and absence of surface adhesion of the disperse phase in the matrix, indicating poor interfacial adhesion (Fig.

The melt viscosity ratio of the dispersed phase to that of the matrix and the viscosity of the matrix are two important factors that control the sizes of the disperse phase. A decrease in matrix viscosity can alter the balance of drop breakup versus coalescence of elastomer particles, resulting in larger particle size (26), (28).
