Chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) prepared by solid‐state chlorination was used as compatibilizer for poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)/linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) blends. Effects of CPE molecular structure on stress‐strain behaviors, dynamic mechanical properties, and morphologies of PVC/LLDPE blends were studied by using SEM, TEM, DMA, and testing mechanical properties. The results showed that the compatibility of PVC/LLDPE blends was improved with the addition of CPE. Also, adhesion strength between the two phases and mechanical properties of the blends were increased. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 64: 2535–2541, 1997
