Abstract
Abstract Motional heterogeneity in blends of NBR (AN = 38%) and PVC was studied by 1H pulsed NMR. It was estimated from NMR relaxation measurements that the PVC molecules in the NBR phase form phase domains of the order of less than 10 nm, consistent with the microheterogeneous structure observed by TEM. Furthermore, by spin diffusion experiments using the Goldman-Shen pulse sequence, the size of the PVC phase domains was semiquantitatively evaluated to be 4.2 nm in the case of the cylindrical domains and to be 5.1 nm in the case of the spherical domains. It becomes clear that pulsed NMR complements the results of other analytical methods with more detailed information on the state of the molecular mixing in the blends.
