Abstract

Blends of polystyrene (PS) with poly(phenoxy)phosphazene (PPN) were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A third component, poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene ether) (PPE), was added with the aim of increasing compatibility of the blends. T g values did not vary in the PS/PPN blends, indicating that the components are substantially incompatible. The addition of PPE did not change the situation much even though some compatibility between PPN and PPE was detected. XPS on the cast films showed that only PPN was present at the surface. The surface composition of the blends was found to be dependent on the preparation technique.
