β¦ Synopsis
Torque values and mechanical properties are reported for blends of low density with linear low density polyethylene (PE). The torque values show that incompatible mixtures in the molten state are formed when the torques of the pure polymers are almost equal. Semicompatible behaviour is shown in the other cases. The mechanical properties indicate that semicompatible mixtures are formed in the solid state. The mechanical properties of these blends are strongly influenced by the linear low density polyethylene only for contents exceeding 25~o.

Rheological and mechanical data on LLDPE/LDPE blends are presented in order to evaluate the influence of the structure of LLDPE on the properties of these blends. The influence of the comonomer type is negligible, while the molecular weight exerts an important effect on properties. For both rheologi
## Abstract The effect of the branch content (BC) and composition distribution (CD) of linear lowβdensity polyethylene (LLDPE) on the thermal and mechanical properties of its blends with LDPE were studied. All blends and pure resins were conditioned in a Haake PolyDrive blender at 190Β°C and in the
The crystallization of a series of low-density polyethylene (LDPE)-and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE)-rich blends was examined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). DSC analysis after continuous slow cooling showed a broadening of the LLDPE melt peak and subsequent increase in the
