Recent progress in the studies of dynamic rheology for multicomponent/multi
phase polymer systems including polymer blends, block copolymers, particle
filled polymers and sol-gel polymers was reviewed with 41 references. Compa
red with homogeneous polymers which followed the linear viscoelastic model,
the characteristic dynamic rheological behavior in the terminal region for
multicomponent polymers was discussed in detail. It was concluded that dyn
amic rheology measurement can be regarded as an effective method for the st
ructure and morphology characterization of those polymer systems.
