Mechanical Alloying of Pet and Pet/Vectra Blends
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
Mechanical alloying represents a potential method for producing finely dispersed alloys of normally incompatible polymers. In this paper, PET and blends of PET with a Vectra thermotropic copolyester have been processed via high energy ball milling at room temperature (ambimilled) and at liquid nitrogen temperatures (cryomilled). Milled powders and compacted disks have been characterized using molecular weight, density and hardness measurements, aswell as DSC, WAXS, TEM and FTIR.
