ABSTRACT Blend compositions are provided comprising first polyvinyl chloride and a second polyvinyl chloride wherein the inherent viscosity (I.V.) of the second polyvinyl chloride, measured in accordance with ASTM1243 is at least about 0.2 units higher than the I.V. of the first polyvinyl chloride. Preferably the I.V. of the second polyvinyl chloride is from 0.2 to 1.0 units higher than the I.V. of said first polyvinyl chloride, with the most preferred difference in I.V. (.DELTA.I.V.) being 0.35 to 0.65 units so as to yield a balance of property improvements including impact resistance, heat distortion temperature, melt flow and melt viscosity. The higher I.V. PVC is present at from 0.1 to less than 20 weight percent of the total PVC content. The compositions also can further comprise melt flow enhancers and/or Tg enhancing agents. The blends of the present invention are processible by a variety of techniques including molding, extrusion, calendering, thermoforming, compression molding and the like to form useful articles such as molded sheets, trays, shrouds as for fans, appliance parts and covers, electrical outlets, business machine housings, piping, telecommunication equipment, automotive components, and numerous others.
