Summary: The phase behavior of poly(ethylene‐co‐styrene) (PES) and poly(ethylene‐co‐butene) (PEB) blends has been studied. A closed‐loop phase diagram was clearly observed in this weakly interacting system as the styrene content in the PES decreased to about 1 mol‐%. At higher styrene contents, the phase loop starts to interplay with the crystallization transformation at lower temperatures.
