Multicomponent polymeric systems containing Biopol as one of the phases are described as obtained according to two different procedures: radical polymerization of an acrylic polymer in the presence of Biopol, and melt-mixing of Biopol with polycaprolactone in the presence of peroxide. The decomposition of peroxide causes, in both cases, the formation of intergrafted species responsible for interfacial activity and compatibilization. The results of chemical, chemical–physical, morphological and mechanical tests, confirming the occurrence of such interactions, are reported.
