Miscibility and crystallization behavior have been investigated in blends of poly(butylene succinate) (PBSU) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), both semicrystalline polymers, by differential scanning calorimetry and optical microscopy. Experimental results indicate that PBSU is miscible with PEO as shown by the existence of single composition dependent glass transition temperature over the entire composition range. In addition, the polymer-polymer interaction parameter, obtained from the melting depression of the high-Tm component PBSU using the Flory-Huggins equation, is composition dependent, and its value is always negative. This indicates that PBSU/PEO blends are thermodynamically miscible in the melt. The morphological study of the isothermal crystallization at 95 oC (where only PBSU crystallized) showed the similar crystallization behavior as in amorphous/crystalline blends. Much more attention has been paid to the crystallization and morphology of the low-Tm component PEO, which was studied through both one-step and two-step crystallization. It was found that the crystallization of PEO was affected clearly by the presence of the crystals of PBSU formed through different crystallization processes. The two components crystallized sequentially not simultaneously when the blends were quenched from the melt directly to 50oC (one-step crystallization), and the PEO spherulites crystallized within the matrix of the crystals of the preexisted PBSU phase. Crystallization at 95 oC followed by quenching to 50oC (two-step crystallization) also showed the similar crystallization behavior as in one-step crystallization. However, the radial growth rate of the PEO spherulites was reduced significantly in two-step crystallization than in one-step crystallization.
