Particle-induced bridging in immiscible polymer blends
Pickering emulsions are emulsions whose drops are stabilized against coalescence by particles adsorbed at their interface. Recent research on oil/water/particle systems shows that particles can sometimes adsorb at two oil/ water interfaces. Such “bridging particles” can glue together drops of oil in water or vice versa. We hypothesize that the same effect should apply in immiscible polymer blen...
متن کاملThe Local Structure of Miscible Polymer Blends
1. Introduction The formation of miscible mixtures of two chemically dissimilar polymers is in general unfavourable. For many materials a single phase is never formed, while for others, the miscible state is only obtained at low temperatures. The classic description of the interaction between two polymers is via the Flory-Huggins theory (for example see [l]) in which x, the interaction paramete...
متن کاملTransient interfacial tension and morphology evolution in partially miscible polymer blends.
The influence of molecular weight asymmetry across an interface on the transient behavior of the interfacial tension is investigated for two different polymer combinations, polybutadiene (PBD)/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polybutene (PB)/PDMS. This choice ensures a minor diffuse interface using the first combination and a very diffuse interface in the latter case. Measurements of the interfa...
متن کاملCompatibilized Immiscible Polymer Blends for Gas Separations
Membrane-based gas separation has attracted a great deal of attention recently due to the requirement for high purity gasses in industrial applications like fuel cells, and because of environment concerns, such as global warming. The current methods of cryogenic distillation and pressure swing adsorption are energy intensive and costly. Therefore, polymer membranes have emerged as a less energy...
متن کاملRelationship between the Glass Transition Temperature and the Interaction Parameter of Miscible Binary Polymer Blends
An equation that relates the g h transition temperature, TE, and a binary interaction parameter, x, for miscible binary polymer blends was derived. The equation including no adjustable parameters was based on a thermodynamic mixing formalism using enthalpy as the thermodynamic parameter. The enthalpy of mixing was written as a van Laar expression, and the T, was formally treated as a second-ord...
