Abstract:When two compatible polymer melts are brought into contact, a diffuse interphase is formed that governs the adhesion between them. The degree of interdiffusion is defined mainly by the processing conditions and the physico‐chemical properties of the materials. Despite the great industrial relevance of co‐extrusion in manufacturing multilayer structures, little research has dealt with interdiffusion under these processing conditions, where polymer‐polymer interfaces are subject to shear load. In this work, proc… Show more
