Abstract

Methods of improving the mechanical properties of poly(vinyl chloride)/linear low density polyethylene have been investigated as a means of reprocessing polymer wastes containing such mixtures. Chlorinated polyethyl ene was found to be a useful additive in such blends for improving their tensile strength and processing behaviour. Co-crosslinking of the blends by chemical means or by irradiation was also found to improve their strength and stiffness.
