Microfibrillar-reinforced elastomer composites based on two dispersed phases, liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) and recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate)(rPET), and styrene-(ethylene butylene)-styrene (SEBS) were prepared using extrusion process. The rheological behavior, morphology, and thermal stability of SEBS/LCP and SEBS/rPET blends containing various dispersed phase contents were investigated. All blends and LCP exhibited shear thinning, behavior, whereas Newtonian fluid behavior was observed for rPET. The incorporation of both LCP and rPET into SEBS significantly improved the processability by bringing down the melt viscosity of the blend system. The fibrillation of LCP dispersed phase was clearly observed in as-extruded strand with addition of LCP tip to 20-30 wt %. Although the viscosity ratio of SEBS/rPET system is very low (0.03), WET domains mostly appeared as droplets in as-extruded strand. The results obtained from thermogravimetric analysis suggested that an addition of LCP a rid rPET into the elastomer matrix improved the thermal resistance significantly in air but not in nitrogen. The simultaneous DSC profiles revealed that the thermal degradation of all polymers examined were endothermic and exothermic in nitrogen and in air, respectively. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
