Solid-state NMR studies on phase behavior and motional mobility in binary blends of polystyrene and poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate)
The phase behavior and motional mobility in binary blends of polystyrene (PS) and poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate) (PCHMA) have been investigated by solid state C-13 NMR techniques. The blend miscibility has been studied by examining the H-1 spin-relaxation times in the laboratory frame (T-H(1)) and in the rotating frame (T-1 rho(H)) for the PCHMA/PS blends with various compositions and pure components. The T-1 rho(H) results show that PCHMA and PS are intimately mixed at the molecular level within the blends at all compositions. In addition, according to the results of carbon T-1 rho. relaxation time measurements, we conclude that mixing is intimate enough to cause a reduction in local chain mobility for PS, but an increase in side chain mobility for PCHMA.
