Summary
Poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) is miscible with poly(3-chloropropyl methacrylate), poly(2-bromoethyl methacrylate) and poly(2-iodoethyl methacrylate) as shown by the optical clarity and the glass transition behaviour of the blends. The miscible blends degrade before phase separation could be induced by heating. The three Tg-composition curves can be fitted by the Gordon-Taylor equation. The implication of the Gordon-Taylor k parameters of the blends is discussed.
