Phase morphology and mechanical properties of the blends of Nylon 6 with scrap poly(vinyl butyral) (PVB) film and poly[styrene-block-(ethylene-co-butene)block-styrene] (SEBS) have been investigated. Scanning electron microscopic photographs revealed that the spherical PVB particles are finely and un

β¦ Synopsis
The transport properties of d-limonene through ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymers (EVOH) and nylon 6,6 films as functions of relative humidity (RH) and temperature were studied. Permeation properties of these polymers were strongly influenced by temperature and RH. Compared to the EVOH films, the nylon 6,6 film had much greater limonene permeability. Mechanical property studies indicated that both the tensile modulus and yield strength of the EVOH films decreased with an increase in RH. The polymer changed from being stiff and brittle at low RH to being soft and ductile at high RH. In addition, ethylene content and orientation were found to affect the transport and mechanical properties of limonene through EVOH polymers.

## Abstract H~2~ and CO~2~ transport properties were investigated on semicrystalline poly(ethyleneβ2,6βdicarboxylate naphtalene) (PEN) films and biaxially stretched films and analyzed in terms of solubility and diffusion. The decrease of the permeability observed on the thermally crystallized sampl
A new method was proposed for the synthesis of nylon 6-potassium titanate composites with high strength and high modulus. Dispersion quality of potassium titanate whiskers in the polyamide matrix and the degree of interfacial adhesion between polyamide and whiskers are the key points of this composi
Blends of PA 6 with SMA or with 12.5-100% fatty amine (C 18) modified SMA at compositions 95/5-60/40 were studied. Particle size of SMA dispersed in PA 6 matrix was around 0.1 mm due to in situ compatibilizer formation. The strength and stiffness of the blends were higher and toughness unchanged in
