Abstract: | It is shown how the morphology and the bulk physico-mechanical properties of polymer blends and alloys may be tailored, by using proper physical and processing conditions for homogeneous systems, and molecular engineering of the interfaces for heterophase ones. That approach, which has been substantiated by a physical study of the miscibility situations at molecular level, has been applied successfully to commodity and engineering polymer-polymer blends, but also to polymer-filler and polymer-liquid heterophase systems. |
