The book surveys theory, characterization, processing, and experimental aspects of phase morphology development and design of polymer blends. Featuring a handpicked selection of topics and expert contributors, it analyzes the polymerization process, crystallization behavior, and structure-rheology relationships for each type of blend. Topics include adhesion of polymer-polymer interfaces, generating nanostructures in thermosetting polymers, dynamic vulcanization, and elasticity. An outstanding resource for anyone involved in the field of polymer materials design, the book also elucidates current state of the art, challenges, and future prospects in the field of polymer blends.
