Abstract

Blends of linear poly(urethane) and linear polystyrene formed simultaneously in situ by different mechanisms (radical polymerization and polyaddition) at various initial mixture compositions and initiator and catalyst concentrations have been studied by DSC and light scattering. It has been shown that formation of the poly(urethane)-polystyrene blend is characterized by the same kinetic and thermodynamic features as the previously studied poly(urethane)-poly(methyl methacrylate) system. However, the poly(urethane)-polystyrene blend forms much slower than the poly(urethane)-poly(methyl methacrylate) blend owing to different reactivities of the starting components, which are determined by their chemical nature. Phase separation in the poly(urethane)-polystyrene system, which at initial stages proceeds via the spinodal mechanism, occurs much faster than that in the poly(urethane)-poly(methyl methacrylate) system because of a poor mutual solubility of the poly(urethane) and polystyrene being formed and probably because of a higher mobility of their macromolecules at the onset of phase separation.
