Miscibility in poly(vinylethylene)/poly(isoprene) blends

Miscibility of Polyolefin Blends

Phase separation in polymers is important for many technical applications but is difficult to predict theoretically. Recently, extensive experimental studies on the miscibility of polyolefins revealed that these systems display a wider variety of mixing behavior than their chemical similarity suggests. In order to predict phase diagrams of polyolefin blends from pure component properties, we ha...

The Role of Transesterification on the Miscibility in Blends of Polycarbonate and Liquid Crystalline Copolyester

Transesterification mechanisms and rate in blends of polycarbonate (PC) and random liquid crystalline polyester copoly(oxybenzoate-p-terephthalate) at molar ratio 40/60 (P46) were studied through a five-component diad analysis and with 13C and 1H-13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It was found that the ester-ester interchange in the two polymers took place within 15 min when the blend...

Blends of Paclitaxel with POSS-Based Biodegradable Polyurethanes: Morphology, Miscibility, and Specific Interactions

The morphology, miscibility, and specific interactions of paclitaxel (PTx) with a family of polyhedral oligosilsesquioxane (POSS)-based biodegradable thermoplastic polyurethanes (POSS TPUs) were investigated systematically using wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). These POSS TPUs incorporate an alterna...
