Small Angle X-Ray Scattering of Crystalline PolymerBlends
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Binary blends of a semicrystalline polymer, poly (butylene terephthalate),PBT, with an amorphous polymer, polyarylate, PAr, were studied for a widerange of compositions. SMall angle x-ray scattering, thermal and mechanicalanalyses were conducted to determine the location of the uncrystallizablePAr relative to the crystal lamellae of PBT, for blends crystallized byheating from the quenched state. Comparison of experimental and calculatedlong periods indicates that interlamellar PAr placement becomes lessprobable as the PAr composition increases. When PBT crystallizes in theseblends, Most PAr is rejected from the regions near the crystal surfaces whenPAr fraction exceeds about 0.40.
