Rigid homopolymer PVC has many uses and has two disadvantages usually compensated for by additives. One difficulty is processability handled by processing aids and the other is an inherent low impact strength increased by impact modifier compounding. This paper describes graft‐copolymerized vinyl chloride on rubber‐type polyolefins which give better processability and greatly improved impact resistance.
