Abstract
Miscibility of binary blends of terpolymer of methyl methacrylate (MMA), acrylonitrile (AN) and styrene (MAS) and copolymer of St and AN (SAN), or MAS and PMMA was studied by light scattering experiments and optical microscope observation. Miscibility windows were calculated from solubility parameter on the basis of mean field approximations. The experimental results showed a good coincidence with the theoretical predictions of the miscibility window.
