Polyamide and polyether maleic anhydride were blended with carbon black at various compositions and processing conditions. The compositions were varied from 0/92/8 percent, 23/69/8 percent, 46/46/8 percent, 69/23/8 percent to 92/0/8 percent of polyamide/polyether maleic anhydride/carbon black. The polymer blends were processed by a Banbury roll mill and an extruder under various conditions and were spray dried. The effects of composition and processing conditions on steady state and dynamic viscoelastilc properties were determined. These effects were compared with the thermal and morphological properties of the blends.
