Abstract

Upper and lower critical solution temperature (UCST and LCST) behaviours have been examined for solution of PHB/PBHE blends in chloroform and chlorobenzene. Polymer-Solvent systems prepared with various solvents and concentrations were found to possess UCST and LCST characteristics. PHB/PBHE solution in chloroform displayed greater miscibility temperature region than that of the blend in chlorobenzene, but the relative tendency of both UCST and LCST were similar.
