## Abstract Summary: The phase separation kinetics of a poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, and poly(__Ξ±__βmethylstyreneβ__co__βacrylonitrile), P__Ξ±__MSAN, blend exhibiting a LCSTβtype phase diagram have been investigated as functions of temperature and demixing time for the near critical composition
The mathematical theory of spinodol decomposition is reviewed. While the theory is self-consistent within its assumptions, some of the assumptions are indicated to be questionable. An alternative formulation is proposed in terms of a set of phenomenological coefficients to be determined by carrelati
