Abstract

This chapter gives a brief account of how melt rheology is affected by the presence of more than one discrete phase. Polymers filled with rigid reinforcing agents such as fibers or minerals are such systems, as are immiscible blends of polymers. Phase-separated block or graft copolymers can be considered as immiscible blends, with the added constraint that the blend components are joined chemically. Foams are filled polymers in which the filler is a gas.
