Abstract
AbstractThe more distinctive morphological features which appear in the micrographs of fracture surfaces of polymer blends of poly(butyleneterephthalate)(PBTP) with poly(ethylene‐covinylacetate) (EVA), obtained by polymerizing in different conditions dimethylterephthalate (DMT) and 1,4‐butanediol (4G) in the presence of EVA (with 4 percent w/w of vinylacetate, VA,), are shown and discussed. The micrograph investigation clearly points out that the adhesion between EVA particles and PBTP matrix increases with the extent of reaction between PBTP and EVA and, for the same time of reaction, by changing from an anchor to a paddle agitator. The mean diameter of the particles is also affected by time of reaction and by the geometry of the agitator, decreasing when the adhesion increases.
