Miscibility, crystallization and melting behaviour, and morphology of binary blends of polycaprolactone with styrene-co-maleic anhydride copolymers (original) (raw)

ABSTRACT The semicrystalline morphology of pure PCL and of some of its miscible binary and ternary blends with Phenoxy and SAN15 has been investigated by small angle X-ray scattering. Morphological parameters have been obtained from the analysis of the one-dimensional correlation function. The influence of the crystallization temperature on the semicrystalline morphology has been investigated and is compared with the melting behaviour as studied with differential scanning calorimetry.
