MCS resin, formed from methyl methacrylate (MMA), styrene (St), chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), was synthesized by suspension swelling graft-copolymerization. In this paper, the synthesis conditions of MCS, the effect of different synthesis conditions on graft efficiency, the mechanical properties, rheological behavior and morphology were investigated. The graft efficiency increased with increasing CPE content. The apparent viscosity of melt increased with increasing the content of CPE. The copolymer composition was analyzed by FTS-40 Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and PE-2400 element analyzer. The fractured surface morphology of MCS resin was observed by SEM and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy.
