Miscibility in a ternary system of poly(ether imide) with semicrystalline poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly(butylene terephthalate)

A rare case of thermodynamic miscibility has been demonstrated in the amorphous state (quenched glass as well as molten state) of a ternary blend system formed by poly(ether imide) and semicrystalline poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly-(butylene terephthalate). A single glass transition temperature (T_g) in the ternary blends was observed using differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic mechanical analysis.
