The dynamic rheological behaviors are measured by small amplitude oscillatory shear on a
rotational rheometer for a polystyrene (PS)/nylon 6 (PA6) blend compatibilized
by a polystyrene grafted maleic anhydride
(PS-g-MAH). The storage moduli versus angular frequency (G’-ω) data of the blends
are fitted by Palierne model. The
Palierne model fits the data basically well for the PA6-rich blends and the
70/6/30 (PS/PS-g-MAH/PA6) blend. The fitting results show that the PS-g-MAH has a finecompatibilizing effect on the PS/PA6 blends.
