Microstructural contributions of different polyolefins to the deformation mechanisms of their binary blends [PDF]
, 2020 The mixing of polymers, even structurally similar polyolefins, inevitably leads to blend systems with a phase-separated morphology. Fundamentally understanding the changes in mechanical properties and occurring deformation mechanisms of these immiscible ...
