Super-tough nylon 6 was prepared by using maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene-octene rubber/semicrystalline polyolefin blend (TPEg) as an impact modifier. The morphology, dynamic mechanical behavior, mechanical properties, and toughening mechanism were studied. Results indicate that TPEg with a semicrystalline polyolefin core and a polyethylene-octane rubber shell, possesses not only a better processability of extruding and pelletizing with a lower cost, but also an improved toughening effect in comparison with the maleated pure polyethylene-octene rubber. The shear yielding is the main mechanism of the impact energy dissipation. In addition, the influence of melt viscosity of nylon 6 on toughening effectiveness was also investigated. High melt viscosity of matrix is advantageous to the improvement of notched Izod impact strength.
