On the compatibility of binary and ternary random copolymers of acrylonitrile with vinyl acetate and/or α-methylstyrene—II: The influence of the time factor

The time dependence of the microscopical aspect, crystallinity, viscosity of the spinning solutions and the thermal and tinctorial properties of films formed from binary, ternary copolymers and binary copolymer mixtures of acrylonitrile with vinyl acetate and χ-methylstyrene have been compared. The characteristics of binary copolymers and incompatible mixtures are stable with time, while those of ternary copolymers and pseudocompatible mixtures evolve towards a limiting state. with phase separation.
