Determination of size distribution of dispersed nanophases and spaces among them in PVC/MBS blends by TEM image analysis

摘要

The size of dispersed nanophases and spaces among them are important factors effeted on toughness of plastic-rubber blends. In order to determine the size distribution of dispersed nanophases and spaces among them, a quantitative method was established by image analysis and transmission electron microscopy of ultra-thin PVC/MBS slices stained by OsO_4. Two PVC/MBS blends samples were determined.
