Rubber particle cavitation has been the focus of many investigations because it dramatically affects the mechanical properties of polymeric blends. In this work; the effect of rubber particle cavitation on the mechanical behavior of high-impact polystyrene was studied. The extent of cavitation in rubber particles was varied via different thermal contraction/expansion cycles in the range of -100 to 23°C. Tensile; creep; and Charpy impact tests were conducted to evaluate the effects of the degree of cavitation on the general mechanical properties. The notch-tip damage zone and deformation micromechanisms were also investigated by a transmitted optical microscopy technique to reveal the effects of cavitation on toughness. The results of this investigation illustrate a close relationship between the degree of rubber particle cavitation and the mechanical performance of high-impact polystyrene. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals; Inc;
