Abstract The core–shell structured particles which comprise rubbery and glassy layers were prepared by emulsifier‐free emulsion polymerization of poly(n‐butyl acrylate/methyl methacrylate)/poly(methyl methacrylate/n‐butyl acrylate) [P(BA/MMA)/P(MMA/BA)]. The core–shell structured particle toughened PVC blends were investigated in detail. Impact strength, elongation at break and the related mechanical properties were measured for further evaluation of the toughening efficiency. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
