Abstract
AbstractA linear equation is proposed to quantify the glass transition behavior of miscible polymer blends in terms of the polymer‐polymer interaction density parameter whose values are obtainable from the melting point depression method. This practical model is successfully applied to four series of binary polyblends containing poly(hydroxy ether) of biphenol A, poly(vinyl chloride), poly(vinylidene fluoride), and poly(2,4‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) as the common components. Each of these groups of polymer systems exhibits a distinct type of intermolecular interaction that can be characterized by the two coefficients of the model equation. In connection with the present analysis, three novel expressions are introduced for describing the glass transition temperature—composition relations of the polymer systems of interest.
