β¦ Synopsis
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermomechanical analysis (TMA) measurements show that, in the case of polycarbonate (PC) with tetramethylpolycarbonate (MPC), the homopolymers are miscible up to 70% PC weight fraction; at higher PC content, an additional PC phase appears. The partial miscibility of PC and MPC has been confirmed by ultrasonic attenuation measurements and scanning electron microscopy. The viscoelastic behaviour of these blends has been correlated with the blend composition and compatibility. The free volume contraction, found to explain the variations of glass transition temperature and viscosity with concentration, suggests strong intermolecular interaction in the compatible range.
