Morphology and rheology of compatibilized polymer blends: Diblock compatibilizers vs crosslinked reactive compatibilizers

Journal of Rheology, 2008
Reactive compatibilization is commonly used when blending immiscible homopolymers. The compatibilizers formed from the interfacial coupling of two types of reactive chains often have a graft copolymer architecture. Here we consider the case where both reactive chains are multifunctional, leading to a crosslinked copolymer at the interface.

Compatibilism

2006
AbstractThis chapter develops compatibilist replies to the most popular styles of argument for incompatibilism (consequence-style arguments and manipulation arguments), and concludes that these arguments leave compatibilism in the running. Differences among various kinds of compatibilism, including semicompatibilism, are examined.

Interphase and Compatibilization by Addition of a Compatibilizer

2003
Polymer blends are mixtures of at least two macromolecular species, polymers and/or copolymers. For practical reasons, the name blend is given to a system only when the minor component content exceeds 2 wt%. Depending on the sign of the free energy of mixing, blends are either miscible or immiscible.

Davidson's Compatibilism

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, 1984
The problem of free will has been with us ever since men began to recognize the existence of laws of nature. Explanatory theories exercise a kind of imperialism over human thought, in the sense that we inevitably try to extend the embrace of a successful theory to cover as many phenomena as opportunity allows.

Unfettered Compatibilism

2023
In this paper, I offer a contemporary spin on a theory of free will that originates with the Stoics, which I call _unfettered compatibilism_. The freedom associated with this view is _self-rule_. It is inspired by a quote from Mahatma Gandhi: _Man is the maker of his own destiny in the sense that he has freedom of choice as to the manner in which he ...
