    This document summarizes a study that investigated the compatibility of blends of ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) and chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) rubber through a novel solvent blending synthesis and characterization. The researchers prepared compatible blends of the non-polar EPDM and polar CPE without using any compatibilizing agents. They found excellent compatibility as indicated by a single glass transition temperature and improved mechanical properties.

    Abstract

    Polymer blends are well known for inducing super characteristics within matrices.

    Preparing compatible blends is always a challenge for researchers. Non-polar Ethylene

    Propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) demands polar inducement in the form of compatibilizing

    agents for getting a homogeneous blend with chlorinated polyethylene (CPE). An attempt has

    been made to prepare EPDM/CPE matrices by solvent blending without any compatibilizing

    agents. Excellent compatibility was attained shown by the single Glass transition temperature

    (Tg). It was confirmed by the better mechanical characteristics.

    Keywords: EPDM, CPE, solvent blending, mechanical properties, compatibility
