Abstract

Hydrogen bonding in polymer blends is a topic of great interest to polymer scientists because such systems have many potential applications. Introducing functional groups to one component to make it capable of forming hydrogen bonds to another, thereby enhancing the miscibility of otherwise immiscible blends, is one of the major achievements during the past 20 years of polymer science. The Painter–Coleman association model generally describes these interactions accurately. This Review discusses in detail the effects of hydrogen bonding on the miscibility and thermal properties of polymer blend systems.
