Coalescence in quiescent polymer blends with a high content of the dispersed phase

Original language description

Coalescence in molten quiescent polymer blends induced by van der Waals forces is studied theoretically. Interaction between a droplet and its nearest neighbor keeping spherical shape during drainage of the matrix trapped between them is considered. It is assumed that droplets having a time dependent radius R are randomly distributed in the blend through the whole course of the coalescence. Various approaches to calculation of the average time of coalescence, tc are compared. Calculated dependence of Ron the time of coalescence, t, is compared with experimental results for polypropylene/ethylene?propylene rubber (PP/EPR) blends. Experimental results show decreasing slope of R3 vs. t dependence, especially for a higher content of dispersed EPR. Theories using average h0 or direct averaging of tc predict somewhat smaller rate of coalescence than that experimentally determined for PP/EPR blends. Reasons of these differences are discussed
