Notes:
Polymer/polymer interaction parameters χ′23 have been measured at 120°C as a function of polymer concentration for six different poly(vinyl chloride)/linear aliphatic polyester blends. The technique used is inverse-phase gas chromatography with several molecular probes. The polymers investigated are poly(DL-lactide), poly(ethylene succinate), poly(ethylene adipate), poly(butylene adipate), poly(δ-valerolactone), poly(ε-caprolactone) and poly(hexamethylene sebacate). Probe/polymer interaction parameters χ12 and polymer/polymer interaction parameters χ′23 values are dependent upon the methylene to carbonyl ratio of the polyester, reaching a minimum for a value of 5, this ratio corresponding to poly(ε-caprolactone) blends. Results are interpreted in terms of pairwise interactions between carbonyl, methylene, and [CHCl] groups.
