Abstract
For various reasons interest in multi-component polymer systems exhibiting what is variously termed compatibility of miscibility (but usually not solubility) has greatly expanded in the last few years. Though as a result, the understanding of the properties of such systems has significantly grown, a number of fundamental problems remain. Several such problems will be discussed, in certain cases with a degree of unavoidable subjectivity, below. Illustrative examples in nearly all cases will be taken from the binary system consisting of poly (2, 6-dimethyl phenylene oxide) and polystyrene, and/or derivatives (e.g. copolymers) of the latter.
