Abstract An innovative TPO, based upon a complex fluid, is described, which shows an unusual balance of physical properties. The effects of complex fluid composition are addressed in a statistically designed experiment. Physical performance, rheological effects, thermal analysis, and morphological characterization are reported. J. VINYL ADDIT. TECHNOL., 12:183–191, 2006. © 2006 Society of Plastics Engineers
