TLDR
In this paper, a model was developed to predict phase morphologies of multiphase polymer blends, based on which interfacial tensions play the major role in establishing the phase structure of a multiphases system, with a less significant role played by the surface areas of the dispersed phases.About:

Interaction of Microstructure and Interfacial Adhesion on Impact Performance of Polylactide (PLA) Ternary Blends
TL;DR: In this paper, the phase morphology of the resulting ternary blends and its relationship with impact behaviors were studied systematically, and an optimum range of particle sizes of the dispersed domains for high impact toughness was identified.

Supertoughened Renewable PLA Reactive Multiphase Blends System: Phase Morphology and Performance
TL;DR: Toughening mechanism behind the supertoughened PLA blends have been established by studying the impact fractured surface morphology at different zones of fracture and synergistic effect of good interfacial adhesion and interfacial cavitations followed by massive shear yielding of the matrix was believed to contribute to the enormous toughening effect observed in these multiphase blends.

The effects of SEBS-g-maleic anhydride reaction on the morphology and properties of polypropylene/PA6/SEBS ternary blends
TL;DR: In this article, a mixture of an unreactive poly[styrene- b -(ethylene- co-butylene)- b -styrene] (SEBS) triblock copolymer and a reactive maleic anhydride-grafted SEBS- g -MA was produced via melt blending in a co-rotating twin-screw extruder.

Polymer Interface and Adhesion
TL;DR: In this paper, the surface tension and surface tension of polymers were calculated from contact angles by the Harmonic-Mean and Geometric-means methods. But the results of the analysis of the contact angles were limited.

Effect of interfacial forces on polymer blend morphologies
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the way in which the components of complex polymer blends are segregated after melt processing and the various morphologies which are formed are shown to be consistent with those predicted from an analysis of spreading coefficients.

Interfacial agents for multiphase polymer systems: Recent advances
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent advances in the use of these compounds in immiscible polymer blends and thermoplastic composites is presented, based on their method of addition (in situformation vs. separate addition) and reactivity.
