摘要
The compatibility and phase morphology of poly (phenylcne oxide) (PPO) multi-componenet blends with poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and polystyrene (PS) were studied using differentialscanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and scanning electron microsopy (SEM) methods. The effect of glycidyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer (GMS), as a compatibilizer, on the morphology of the PPO blends has also been studied in detail. The influence of the moiecular weight of PET and the synergetic effect of the compatibilizers of GMS and phenoxy on the morphology were examined. The DSC and DMA results show that there are two distinct glass transitions correspondinig to PET and PPO existed, however, the Tg of PPO shifts toward lower temperature region due to the addition of GMS and PS. The SEM results reveal that PET component is as dispersed phases in the PPO matrix, part of which is located at the interfaces due to the interaction with GMS while PS is miscible in the PPO matrix.

The DSC and DMA results show that there are two distinct glass transitions corresponding to PET and PPO existed, however, the Tg of PPO shifts toward lower temperature region due to the addition of GMS and PS. The SEM results reveal that PET component is as dispersed phases in the PPO matrix, part of which is located at the interfaces due to the interaction with GMS while PS is miscible in the PPO matrix. A significant improvement of the compatibility was achieved for the PPO multi-component blends owing to the synergetic effect of GMS and phenoxy.
