Filled polymer compositions
First Claim
1. A filled polymer composition comprising(A) from about 5 to about 90 percent of one or more thermoplastic substantially random interpolymers prepared by polymerizing one or more α
- -olefin monomers with one or more vinylidene aromatic monomers and/or one or more hindered aliphatic or cycloaliphatic vinylidene monomers, and optionally with other polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer(s), and(B) from about 10 to about 95 percent of one or more inorganic fillers, the amounts of (A) and (B) being based on the total weight of (A) and (B),wherein said one or more interpolymers contain interpolymerized from about 35 to about 99.5 mole percent of one or more α
-olefin monomers and from about 0.5 to about 65 mole percent of one or more vinylidene aromatic monomers and/or one or more hindered aliphatic or cycloaliphatic vinylidene monomers, and optionally other polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer(s).

Abstract
A filled polymer composition which comprises
A) from about 5 to about 90 percent of one or more thermoplastic substantially random interpolymers prepared by polymerizing one or more a-olefin monomers with one or more vinylidene aromatic monomers and/or one or more hindered aliphatic or cycloaliphatic vinylidene monomers, and optionally with other polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer(s), and
(B) from about 10 to about 95 percent of one or more inorganic fillers,
the amounts of (A) and (B) being based on the total weight of (A) and (B).
Fabricated articles made from the filled polymer compositions are useful as sound insulating or energy absorbing films or sheets or as floor, wall or ceiling coverings.
