Abstract

AbstractBlends of atactic and syndiotactic polystyrene have a single composition dependent glass transition temperature. This does not confirm the miscibility of both polymers, however, unambiguously because there is only a small difference of 10°C in the glass transition temperatures of both neat polymers. Diffusion measurements of syndiotactic polystyrene and deuterated atactic polystyrene using the nuclear reaction D(3He,α)p confirm at least partial miscibility of both components. The average diffusion coefficient at 190°C is 2.3 ± 0.2 × 10−15 cm2/s.
