## Abstract We review the synthesis, morphology, and physical and mechanical properties of IFNs as well as the related pseudoโIPNs, in which only one of the polymers is crossliriked. Recent studies have shown that the degree of phase separation achieved in these materials is strongly dependent on t

## Abstract Recent investigations on interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) have included two component IPNs from polyurethanes and poly(methacrylates) and two component IPNs from polyurethanes and epoxies. All the IPNs were prepared by the simultaneous polymerization technique (SINโIPNs). Two ty
Prevalence of patterned microstructures in interpenetrating polymer networks is well documented experimentally. Thermodynamic theories explaining this feature nonetheless have not been forthcoming. These enmeshed structures carry elastic energy and elevate in the thermodynamic limit the free energy
## Abstract ฮฑ,ฯโAcrylate terminated poly(1,3โdioxolane) (polyDXL) was copolymerized with methyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate for the synthesis of block copolymer networks. It was shown by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) that the presence of covalent bonds between poly DXL and the pol
