Influence of composition, crystallization conditions and melt phase structure on solid morphology, kinetics of crystallization and thermal behavior of binary polymer/polymer blends

TL;DR: In this paper, an investigation on the morphology, the crystallization and the thermal behavior of several binary crystallizable blends are reported, and it was found that the addition of a second non-crystallizable component causes drastic variations on some morphological and structural quantities of the semicrystalline matrix (isotactic polypropylene or nylon 6).

Crystallization, morphology, structure and thermal behaviour of nylon-6/rubber blends

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study was carried out in order to investigate the morphological, kinetic, structural and thermodynamic properties of nylon-6/rubber (namely, ethylene-propylene copolymer (EPM), functionalized by inserting along its backbone succinic anhydride groups (ePM-g-SA)) blends.

Studies on the melt flow behavior of thermoplastic elastomers from polypropylene—Natural rubber blends

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of crosslinking on viscosity of thermoplastic polypropylenenenatural rubber blends has been evaluated with specific reference to the effects of blend ratio, extent of dynamic cross-linking of the rubber phase and temperature, on viscoverage, flow behavior index, and deformation of the extrudate.

Chlorinated polyethylene modification of blends derived from waste plastics. Part II: Mechanism of modification

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the relationship between CPE structure and its effectiveness as a blend modifier and concluded that the interaction of CPE with polyethylene derives from compatibility of rather long methylene sequences in CPE and the polyethylenes which results in good adhesive bonding.
