Abstract
The polymerization-induced phase separation process of polyethersulfone (PES) modified bismaleimide resin, 4,4′-bismaleimidodiphenylmethane (BDM), was investigated by time resolved light scattering (TRLS) and scanning electronic microscopes (SEM). At the blends with 10 wt% and 12.5 wt% PES, a phase inversion structure was found by SEM. TRLS results displayed clearly the spinodal decomposition (SD) mechanism and the exponential decay procedure of scattering vector q m, which followed Maxwell-type relaxation equation. The characteristic relaxation time τ for the blends can be described by the Williams–Landel–Ferry equation. It demonstrated experimentally that the phase separation behaviors in these PES modified bismaleimide blends were affected by viscoelastic effect.
