Abstract

The wet-state-consolidation process was used to fabricate bulk rigid-rod/thermoplastic molecular composites of poly(p-phenylene benzobisthiazole) and poly(ether ether ketone). The composites were molded into bar-shaped specimens. The morphology of those specimens was studied throughout the entire process using X-ray scattering and scanning electron microscopy to correlate processing conditions and properties. The mechanical properties of the bulk composites were comparable to those of other rigid-rod/thermoplastic molecular composite systems.
