Thermal properties and morphologies of poly(ethylene terephthalate) in blends with epoxidized natural rubbers / Siti Farehah Suliman @ Sulaiman

Thermal properties and morphologies for polymer blends of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and epoxidized natural rubber with 25 mole % (ENR-25) and 50 mole % epoxy content (ENR-50) were studied by using differential scanning calorimeter (OSC) and polarizing optical microscope (POM). The blends we...
