Abstract
The Izod impact behavior of polyamide 6, dry and wetted was studied as function of temperature and the brittle-tough transition correlated with the glass transition.
The Izod impact behavior of nylon-rubber blends was also studied. These blends were prepared from polyamide 6 and a maleic anhydride modified EPDM. The impact behavior is given as function of rubber concentration and rubber particle size.
The toughening mechanism of the polyamide and the blends are discussed.
