Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance of the PA6/PC, PA6/PPO, and PA6/PC/PPO blends
The effect of mixing time is very important to plasticization and/or occurrence of chemical reaction between polyamide 6/poly(propylene oxide), polyamide 6/polycarbonate, and polyamide 6/polycarbonate/poly (propylene oxide) blends. The systems were investigated through solid-state carbon-13 cross-polarization magic angle spinning with variable contact time in the NMR experiment. In the systems, polycarbonate can prevent the antiplasticization effect already observed in the polyamide 6/poly(propylene oxide) blend. Therefore, it was verified that the addition of polycarbonate in the polyamide 6/poly(propylene oxide) system causes a hardening of the blend. This fact can be attributed to the restriction of the mobility of the NH group, probably influenced by the type of interaction that occurs in the polyamide 6/polycarbonate/poly(propylene oxide), due to the effect of poly(propylene oxide), which can be act as an interfacial agent promoting a better interaction between polyamide 6 and polycarbonate.
