✦ Synopsis

Morphology of low-density polyethylene (PE)/thermotropic hydroxyethyl cellulose acetate (HECA) blends, and the melting and crystallization behavior of PE in the blends were studied. The ''sea island'' morphology was observed in PE/HECA blends. The process of melting and crystallization of PE in blends was independent of the HECA fraction when the PE fraction was larger than 50 wt %. When the PE fraction is smaller than 20 wt %, however, multiple crystallization was observed in the low temperature region. HECA was incompatible with PE crystals in the blends, but partially compatible with the amorphous part of PE. HECA could exist between the PE lamellae in PE spherulites, and concentric ring morphology was observed in spherulites.

Thermotropic hydroxyethyl cellulose acetate (HECA) was totally miscible with uncured epoxy resin, and the miscibility was not influenced by the degree of substitution (DS) of HECA. When the epoxy resin was cured with diamine (DDA), HECA became immiscible with the epoxy resin matrix, and a heterogene

## Abstract **Summary:** Blends of M‐LLDPE and CAB were prepared in an internal laboratory mixer with 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 wt.‐% of CAB. Structure and properties of the blends were studied by means of tensile tests, DSC, SEM, extraction with a selective solvent, Raman spectroscopy and XRD. Blen
