In type VI phase behaviour a three-phase curve l2hg is found with an LCEP and an UCEP. Both critical endpoints are of the type (l2=li)+g and are connected by a l2=h critical curve which shows a pressure maximum. For this type of phase behaviour at constant pressure closed loop isobaric regions of l2+li equilibria are found with a lower critical solution temperature and an upper critical solution temperature. [Pg.30]

The phase behaviour of many polymer-solvent systems is similar to type IV and type HI phase behaviour in the classification of van Konynenburg and Scott [5]. In the first case, the most important feature is the presence of an Upper Critical Solution Temperature (UCST) and a Lower Critical Solution Temperature (LCST). The UCST is the temperature at which two liquid phases become identical (critical) if the temperature is isobarically increased. The LCST is the temperature at which two liquid phases critically merge if the system temperature is isobarically reduced. At temperatures between the UCST and the LCST a single-phase region is found, while at temperatures lower than the UCST and higher than the LCST a liquid-liquid equilibrium occurs. Both the UCST and the LCST loci end in a critical endpoint, the point of intersection of the critical curve and the liquid liquid vapour (hhg) equilibrium line. In the two intersection points the two liquid phases become critical in the presence of a... [Pg.50]

This figure clearly shows the temperature and composition windows where it is either a two-phase system or a single-phase system. The characteristic features of an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) and a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) corresponding to the phase transition are identified. For a particular composition of two immiscible polymers, if the temperature is increased, the UCST is the highest temperature at which two phases may co-exist in the blend. There is then a window of miscibility as the temperature is increased further, followed by phase separation again at the LCST. This type of diagram is often seen for polymer solutions, e.g. polystyrene in cyclohexane. Often polymer blends show... [Pg.106]

The polyethylenes with higher functionality were soluble in epoxy resin and required lower temperamre and time for forming homogeneous blend systems. The miscibility of the polymers was dependent on the type of epoxy resin also. Cycloaliphatic epoxy resin showed more miscibility with the polymers compared to DGEBA resin and phase separation occurred in these blend systems as a result of crystallization of PE. Upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behavior was... [Pg.626]

According to the type of T versus q> diagram (Fig. 25.4), the binary solution can exhibit an upper critical solution temperature (UCST), a lower critical solution temperature (LCST), or both (close-loop phase behavior). Above the UCST or below the LCST the system is completely miscible in all proportions [82], Below the UCST and above LCST a two-phase liquid can be observed between cp and cp". The two-phase liquid can be subdivided into unstable (spontaneous phase separation) and metastable (phase separation takes some time). These two kinds of mixtures are separated by a spinodal, which is outlined by joining the inflexion points (d AGIdcp ) of successive AG versus cp phase diagrams, obtained at different temperatures (Fig. 25.3b). Thus, the binodal and spinodal touch each other at the critical points cp and T. ... [Pg.478]

The X parameters of a large number of polymer blends exhibit this kind of temperature dependence. An example of this is the SPB(88)/JSPB(78) blend [system 27a], and the temperature dependence of x is shown in Fig. 19.1(a). Increasing temperature in such blends leads to increased miscibility. This behavior is often referred to as upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behavior. A typical phase diagram obtained from such systems is shown in Fig. 19.1(b). The spinodal and binodal curves were calculated for a SPB(88)/JSPB(78) blend with N = 2,000. A 50/ 50 mixture of these polymers is predicted to be two phase at room temperature but single phase at temperatures above 105 °C. The qualitative features of the phase diagrams obtained from all type I blends will be similar to Fig. 19.1(b). Of course the locations of the phase boundaries will depend on A, B, and N. [Pg.342]

Where the solubility parameter rule is in error is for natural rubber and polybutadiene. The differential in solubility parameters is around 0.6 but the two polymers are immiscible. Polybutadiene grade IISRP 1207 and an oil extended polymer such as IISRP 1712 have a differential of less than 0.1 and in this case the two elastomers are nearly fully miscible between the lower and upper critical solution temperatures. The blended elastomers mechanical properties then become a function of the filler type, distribution, vulcanization system, and any processing aids present. [Pg.180]

If we assume the interaction parameter takes the form (2.106), the temperature coefficient B is positive the polymers are more easily dissolved into the solvents at higher temperature. Hence the solutions phase separate at low temperatures with an upper critical solution temperature (UCST). Many polymers dissolved in organic solvents show a phase separation of the UCST type. Aqueous solutions of polymers, however, often exhibit the opposite tendency. They dissolve more easily at low temperatures. Hence the solutions separate into two phases with a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) on heating. [Pg.80]

The most important defect in simple theory, from a practical point of view, is its failure to describe the temperature dependence of polymer-polymer miscibility with temperature. Simple theory predicts miscibility at high temperature, irrespective of the value of AH , since TAS inevitably dominates at sufficiently high temperature. This behaviour is characterised by a phase diagram of the type shown schematically in Fig. 3a and is typical of small molecule systems. Such systems are characterised by an upper-critical-solution temperature (UCST). In contrast, polymer-polymer systems (if not immiscible at all accessible temperatures) are usually characterised by a lower-critical-solution temperature (LOST), Fig. 3b, and are more likely to be miscible at low temperatures. [Pg.75]
