Study on the Miscibility of Polypyrrole and Polyaniline Polymer Blends by Tekalign A. Tikish, Ashok Kumar, Jung Yong Kim

“…The polymer blends showed almost amorphous nature in XRD spectra because of intermolecular interaction between PPy and PANI macromolecules, which was confirmed by FT-IR data. Specifically, the DSC result for the PPY : PANI = 50 : 50 wt.% blend showed only one glass transition temperature (Tg), which indicates that the two polymers are well miscible without undergoing any phase separation.…”
