Effect of filler concentration on the phase separation in poly(vinyl acetate)‐poly(methyl methacrylate) mixtures

Abstract

The temperatures and kinetics of phase separation have been studied as a function of filler concentration in a polymer mixture of poly(vinyl acetate)‐poly(methyl methacrylate). The filler was shown to have a marked effect on the cloud point position and the phase separation kinetics at various temperatures. The effects observed are dependent upon the component ratio.
