Blends of polysulfone (PSu) with a liquid crystalline copolyester (Vectra-A950; VA) have been prepared by melt mixing. Their morphology has been studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Either blend specimens as obtained from the melt mixing or fibers drawn from the melt were used for the SEM analysis. Further information on the morphology of the blends was gained by extraction of the PSu phase with methylene chloride. Preliminary theological characterization of the blends was made by measuring the viscosity curves at 290 and 300 degrees C, with a capillary viscometer having a die of 1 mm diameter and L/D = 40. Finally, an attempt at improving the phase compatibility was made by synthesizing a copolyester, having the same structure of commercial VA, in the presence of preformed PSu and using the product as a possible compatibilizer. It was demonstrated that the blends are composed of two immiscible phases showing poor adhesion. The LCP droplets could, nevertheless, be deformed into oriented fibrils under elongational flow conditions. The LCP particles were shown to coalesce into large domains, and to migrate toward the outer layer of, e.g., extruded rods, under the influence of appropriate flow conditions, thus showing that there is a strong mutual influence between morphology and theology of these materials.
