A~tract--The parameters of segmental adsorption energy for poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly(vinyl acetate) in solvents of various thermodynamic qualities have been determined. Selective adsorption from PMMA-PVAc blend and its influence on the phase behaviour of filled films have been investigated.
Abstraet--A continuum model describing the spinodal decomposition of polymer blends under externally applied shear has been developed. Numerical simulations were conducted for two-dimensional Couette flow. The morphology of the resulting polymer blend was established by competition between diffusion
## Abstract **Summary:** The spinodal decomposition of a binary mixture subjected to simple shear flow is investigated in the framework of the modified timeβdependent GinzburgβLandau (TDGL) equation with an external velocity term. The domain growth and related rheological properties of a binary mix
