Abstract:SYNOPSISThe relationship between the microstructure and corresponding mechanical properties developed during injection molding of blends containing a liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) as the minor component and a n engineering polymer system has been studied. A wholly aromatic copolyester LCP (Vectra A950) was melt blended at different compositions with a thermoplastic matrix consisting of a commercial compatibilized blend of polyamide-6 and ABS (Triax 1180). These blends were prepared under two different sets … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
