Notes:
Thirty-five polymethacrylate/chlorinated polymer blends were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. Poly(ethyl), poly(n-propyl), poly(n-butyl), and poly(n-amyl methacrylate)s were found to be miscible with poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), chlorinated PVC, and Saran, but immiscible with a chlorinated polyethylene containing 48% chlorine. Poly(methyl) (PMMA), poly(n-hexyl) (PHMA), and poly(n-lauryl methacrylate)s were found to be immiscible with the same chlorinated polymers, except the PMMA/PVC, PMMA/Saran, and PHMA/Saran blends, which were miscible. A high chlorine content of the chlorinated polymer and an optimum CH2/COO ratio of the polymethacrylate are required to obtain miscibility. However, poly(methyl), poly(ethyl), poly(n-butyl), and poly(n-octadecyl acrylate)s were found to be immiscible with the same chlorinated polymers, except with Saran, indicating a much greater miscibility of the polymethacrylates with the chlorinated polymers as compared with the polyacrylates.
