The blends of polyoxymethylene (POM)/thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU)
POM/TPU/isocyanate oligomer (Z) and POM/TPU/Z/polyether were prepared by using twin-screw extruder.Mechanical properties
crystallization behavior and morphology were studied through mechanical properties testing
differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)
polarizing microscopy (PLM)
Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR),scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic mechanic analysis (DMA).The results showed that with increasing content of TPU
elongation at break and notched impact strength of the blends increased.Z and polyether played an important role in promoting the dispersion of TPU in POM and enhancing compatibility of two phases.The crystallinity of POM in the blends decreased.Elongation at break and notched impact strength of the blends were improved.
