I am dissolving two polymers in solvents and then combine them together for single solution.... Main approach is to form polymer blend.
How i can confirm wheater it is polymer blend or not ?
Is it a simple mixing or different form that ?
DSC, DMTA gives the direct information about blend. Mechanical properties measurement will give some idea too.
Hello Mr.Arya
your question is intersting for me.
you can confirm it by TEM,DSC,TGA,SEM and/or XRD.
bottem paper (DOI: 10.1016/j.tca.2016.08.005) may be useful for you.
Once upon the time I was made some observation of polymer blend (PUR and PE) with AFM @ force modulation mode (images attached). Phase imaging is suitable too. But it depends on what size of changes are you expecting - 10 to 20 nm? Molecular change? Micrometer change?
