Abstract
The interface in polyhydroxybutyrate/PAN- and polyhydroxybutyrate/PET fibres model composites has been investigated by polarizing optical an d scanning electron microscopy. Under certain melting/cooling conditio ns in PAN fibre system a transcrystalline interphase is clearly observ ed, whereas in PET/PHB model composites the transcrystallization pheno menon occurs only when fibres with significant surface roughness are u sed.
