Blends
Mixtures, compared to those with block copolymers, have great advantages, that is why research on mixtures proliferates, currently there are thousands of registered patents and hundreds of mixtures in development. Polymer blends allow fast and inexpensive retrieval of new materials with better characteristics than individual materials. You can mix different polymers with compatibilizer, with oil, with plasticizers to change the final properties, chemical resistance, transparency, hardness, resistance to heat etc.
