The influence of the property of probes on chi'23 was also discussed. Results showed thermodynamic miscibility for PVC/EVA blend was accurately and directly indicated by chi'23. Experimental data confirmed the conclusion reported by other studies. It was immiscible for blends of which the acetate content was lower in EVA copolymer. The experimental temperature was favorable for improving miscibility of blends. The medium content in EVA copolymer resulted in partial miscibility for the blend, but the phase-seperation appeared when the experimental temperature was raised. This is in agreement with the previous studies on polymer blends. The apparent interaction parameter was found to be dependent on the chemical nature of the probe, the values of chi'23 were very different, but most experimental data show the same general trend with temperature and composition of blends.Read More
