INTRODUCTION
In situ compatibilization technique is considered to be one of the most effective methods to enhance the properties of immiscible polymer blends. The key factor for achieving in situ compatibilization of immiscible polymers is to form a copolymer by chemically combining the polymer components during the blending process. The formed copolymer plays the role of a compatibilizer at the interface, which reduces the interfacial tension between polymer phases [1]. Apparently, in situ compatibilization of polystyrene (PS) and polyolefin is rather difficult since neither polymer provides any functional group for the formation of a chemically bonded copolymer ...
