Abstract
AbstractThe miscibility behavior of poly(2‐chloroethyl methacrylate) (PCEMA) with various polymethacrylates was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. PCEMA is miscible with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA), and poly(tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate) (PTHFMA), but is immiscible with poly(n‐propyl methacrylate), poly(isopropyl methacrylate), poly(n‐butyl methacrylate), and poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate). PCEMA/PEMA blends showed lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior but PCEMA/PMMA and PCEMA/PTHFMA blends degraded before phase separation could be induced. The miscibility behavior of PCEMA is similar to that of a chlorinated polymer.
