Latex blends, film morphology

Spiro JG, Parinha IPS, Winnik MA (2003) Thermodynamics and morphology of latex blend films. Macromolecules 36(20) 7791-7802. doi 10.1021/ma021579j... [Pg.190]

This is truly reflected in the morphology of the uncured clay preexfoliated rubber nanocomposite films (NLu NA) prepared by the latex blending method (Fig. 7a). Curing the NR/NA nanocomposites in situ prevulcanization (No>NA) does not alter the arrangements of dispersed clay layers greatly, as seen from the... [Pg.19]

Poly(styrene-co-butadiene) rubber and poly(acrylonitrile-co-butadiene) rubber latex mixture films were evaluated as precursors of polymer electrolytes. A 50 50 blend was the optimum for mechanical strength and ionic conductivity. A simple equivalent mechanical model for the relationship between the mechanical strength and the structure was developed, which gave good agreement with experimental results, including materials with co-continuous phase morphologies. 26 refs.

Atomic force microscopy has also been used to investigate the morphology of natural rubber blended films. The natural rubber and poly(methyl methacrylate) particles in the latex films can be easily distinguished and are clearly... [Pg.330]
