A novel mechanism of the PM interactions that relies on the compositional non-uniformities in polymer blends caused by the presence of solid fillers is predicted. This mechanism is shown to carry out the PM interactions even in the case of an incompressible polymer blend, where the standard effective interactions between fillers, having osmotic origin, are suppressed.Read More
