Abstract
- Melt blends of syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS) and poly(p-phenylene sulfide) (PPS) have been prepared by using an internal mixer at 300 <f>°</f>C. The thermal, mechanical and morphological properties of binary blends of sPS with PPS have been investigated in this paper. The thermal and morphological properties show the immiscible binary blend evidences, which have a clear phase separation between the components at all compositions and a lack of adhesion at the interface. According to the X-ray diffraction patterns of blends, the crystalline structure of sPS in the blend is not altered from <f>α</f> form to <f>β</f> form. Indeed, the results for tensile test reveal that there is no synergism of the modulus of elasticity for sPS/PPS blend system. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
