The results show that the RuO_4 staining technique is simpler and may give better image contrast than other staining methods for this polymer. Microphase separation and lamellar structure of segmented polyether-and polyester-polyurethanes were directly observed and discussed.展开更多

The analysis indicates that the blend morphology was mainly determined by soft segment structure of polyurethanes. The PPO-PU/PVC blends show typical two-phase morphology and their modulus-composition relations may be described by Halpin-Tsai model for domain-matrix two-phase systems.While the PCL-PU / PVC, PTMA-PU/PVC and PTMO-PU/PVC blends fit the Kerner's packed grain composite model. These results may imply that the modulus-composition relationship is sensitive to the interactions between the components and the mixture morphology of the blends.展开更多
