A two-stage stable system of isotactic polypropylene-poly(ethylene oxide) blend, in which poly(ethylene oxide) can be permanent either in molten or in crystallized states in the temperature range from 280 to 327 K, was described. The behavior of that blend was explained in terms of fractionated crys

✦ Synopsis
Isothermal and nonisothermal crystallization kinetics of different poly(ethy1ene oxide)/ poly(propy1ene oxide) blends were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Glass transition temperature of quenched samples have also been reported. Phase morphologies and poly(ethy1ene oxide) spherulite growth rates were analyzed by polarizing light transmission microscopy. Results show morphological changes along with regime transitions of poly(ethy1ene oxide) crystal growth. Kinetic analyses of the data suggest that, although the blend behaves as a noncompatible, phase-separated system, there exists a certain degree of interaction between polymer chains.
