Abstract
The dynamic rheological behavior of high density polyethylene (HDPE)/ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) blends, low density polyethylene (LDPE)/UHMWPE blends and linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/ UHMWPE blends was measured in parallel plate rheometer at 200°C. The analysis of log-additivity rule, Cole-Cole plots and Han curves of the three series blends indicated that the LDPE/UHMWPE blends were miscible in the melt, while the HDPE/UHMWPE blends and LLDPE/UHMWPE blends showed phase separation. The DSC results of LLDPE/UHMWPE blends and HDPE/UHMWPE blends were consistent with the rheological properties, while for the thermal properties of LDPE/UHMWPE blends, results revealed three endothermic peaks, which indicated a liquid-solid phase separation in LDPE/UHMWPE blends.
