Miscibility of Polyamide-6,6 with Aromatic Polyamides
The polyamides with aromatic rings in the main chain were synthesized by the solution polymerization of 4,4’-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and aliphatic dicarboxylic acid in the presence of catalyst. The thermal properties and the miscibility behaviours with polyamide-6,6 of these aromatic polyamides were studied. The aromatic polyamides synthesized with one kind of dicarboxylic acid had typical thermal properties of crystalline polymers, whereas those synthesized with the mixtures of dicarboxylic acids were not easily crystallized. The observed miscibility behaviours showed some differences from those predicted by binary interaction model.
