M. Alberdi et al., INFLUENCE OF THE BLENDING METHOD AND POLY(METHYL METHACRYLATE) TACTICITY IN ITS MISCIBILITY WITH POLY(HYDROXY ETHER OF BISPHENOL A, PHENOXY), Polymer Journal, 26(9), 1994, pp. 1037-1046
Blends of poly(hydroxy ether of bisphenol-A) (phenoxy) and poly(methyl
methacrylate) exhibit a different phase behaviour depending on the bl
ending method. Additionally, both polymers present similar glass trans
ition temperatures complicating the study of the phase behaviour by cl
assical DSC methods. The problem has been resolved by using different
experimental techniques (enthalpy relaxation, DMTA, CP-MAS NMR) which
have confirmed the intrinsic miscibility of this blend. The influence
of the poly(methyl methacrylate) tacticity in the miscibility of the b
lends has also been studied.
