Blends of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were prepared by solution casting from 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane. The miscibility and interchange reactions in DGEBA-PET blends were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and optical microscopy. PET

Abstract
The existence of interchange reactions in a poly(ethylene 2,6‐naphthalenedicarboxylate)/poly(bisphenol‐A carbonate) blend (PEN/PC) has been proven by means of solubility tests, DSC and FTIR and NMR spectroscopies. In addition, DSC results reveal that these interchange reactions are responsible for the miscibilization of the initially immiscible system.
