Notes:
The fracture surface topography of simultaneous interpenetrating polymer networks (SIN'S) of poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4 phenylene oxide) (PPO)/poly (butadiene) diol was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The phase morphology of the IPNs is highly dependent on PPO/poly (butadiene) diol mass ratio. A single-phase morphology of the IPNs was achieved when the content of poly (butadiene) diol is below 40 wt % in the initial composition. The SEM observations are also wholly consistent with the glass transition temperature behavior obtained in the differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) measurements. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
