Abstract

The investigation of the thermal behavior of polymer blends leads to phase diagrams which involve Important information about the system. From these diagrams, equilibrium as well as non-equilibrium phases can be deduced and ranges of miscibility or partial miscibility of the polymers become obvious. Hence the diagrams are of a great value for processing of advanced polymer blends, especially If a polyphasic polymers such as a polymer liquid crystal is one of the constituents of the system.
