Polymer blends of poly (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene)/poly (methyl methacrylate) with ethylene methacrylate copolymer (EMA) were injection molded, and the notch sensitivity of the bends were examined by Izod impact and tensile tests. Investigations revealed that the toughness of ABS/PMMA composites were greatly improved and appeared a linear increase with the addition of EMA. However, the blends also show strong notch sensitivity due to the EMA component but the EMA content seems not a factor responsible for it. Tensile tests of the blends revealed that notches in any depth have great detrimental effects on the elongation at break of the materials, which is not consistent with the calculated notch sensitivity factor (kS) data.

This study is focused on the recovery and recycling of plastics waste, primarily polycarbonate, poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) and high impact polystyrene, from end-of-life waste electrical and electronic equipments. Recycling of used polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene, polycarbonate/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene/high impact polystrene material was carried out using material recycling through a melt blending process. An optimized blend composition was formulated to achieve desired properties from different plastics present in the waste electrical and electronic equipments. The toughness of blended plastics was improved with the addition of 10 wt% of virgin polycarbonate and impact modifier (ethylene-acrylic ester-glycidyl methacrylate). The mechanical, thermal, dynamic-mechanical and morphological properties of recycled blend were investigated. Improved properties of blended plastics indicate better miscibility in the presence of a compatibilizer suitable for high-end application.
