Summary: The thermal stability of a polyamide‐6/low linear density polyethylene blend (PA6/LLDPE) was studied using thermal analysis techniques. The thermogravimetric studies carried out showed that when a diethyl maleate grafted styrene‐ ethylene/butadiene‐styrene terpolymer (SEBS‐g‐DEM) is added to the PA6/LLDPE blend there is an actual enhancement of the thermal stability due to the increase in the interfacial area within the blend. The Invariant Kinetic Parameter method (IKP) proved to be a qualitative technique unfolding the type of degradation mechanisms taking place in the material vicinity. Nucleation and phase boundary reactions are the kinetic models of thermal decomposition with the most significant probability of occurring.
