Abstract
The temperature and composition effects on polymorphism changes in cold-crystallized miscible blends of syndiotactic polystyrenes (sPS) and atactic polystyrenes (aPS) were analyzed. The neat sPS and sPS/aPS blends of 75/25, 50/50, and 25/75 compositions were examined. The melting behavior and thermal treatments on the samples were performed with a differential scanning calorimeter equipped with a mechanical intracooler. The polymorphism of cold-crystallized 50/50 and 25/75 sPS/aPS blends showed a significant change with increasing aPS contents in the miscible blends.
