Abstract: | The poly(vinlylidene fluoride) (PVDF) was incorporated within the compound matrix of poly(ethylmethacrylate) (PEMA)/poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) using solution cast technique. The importance of PVDF in the miscibility of PEMA/PMMA matrix was investigated using FT-IR, DSC, SEM and AFM technique. Crystalline particle size of PVDF in PEMA/PMMA matrix was analyzed using XRD characterization. Single-phase compatibility with maximum crystallinity along with the maximum value of hardness was observed when PVDF/PMMA/PEMA were blended in equal weight ratio. The PVDF particle act as reinforcing material within the compound matrix of PEMA/PMMA, and hence, improves the properties of prepared ternary blends. |
