| Abstract: | The results of an infrared study of poly (meta-phenylene adipamide)-poly (ethylene oxide) blends are reported. This is the first time, to the authors' knowledge, that infrared spectroscopy has been used to experimentally map the phase diagram of a polymer blend. The results are compared with theoretical phase diagrams calculated from a recently described association model. |
