A comparative study of three poly(methacrylamides) containing different N-substitutions was carried out in order to obtain a better understanding of the resonance effects on the inter-association and self-association hydrogen bonding interactions in polymer blends. DSC and solid-state NMR analyses are employed to study the relative miscibility of these three binary blends, indicating that the PNPAA/P4VP blend has a better miscibility than the PNMAA/P4VP and PNCHAA/P4VP blends, because the resonance characteristic of the aromatic ring in PNPAA enhances the inter-association hydrogen bonding with P4VP based on FTIR and solid-state NMR analyses.
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.
