Table 1, blends of the above examples and comparative examples, and bottle physical properties characterization
As can be seen from the results of the sizes of the dispersed phases in the examples and the comparative examples in Table 1, the block copolymer PET-MXD6 prepared by the invention can effectively improve the compatibility of PET and MXD6 so as to realize uniform dispersion of MXD6 in the PET matrix, and the homogeneous blend can improve the barrier property and the transparency of PET bottles.
When the PET-MXD6 block copolymer (comparative example 1) is not added or the addition amount of PET-MXD6 is too small (comparative example 2), the compatibilization effect is poor, and MXD6 is randomly dispersed in the PET matrix in different sizes, resulting in deterioration of barrier property and transparency of the product. When the MXD6 addition amount is too high (comparative example 3), a compatibilizer of small molecular weight exists in the system, severely degrading the mechanical properties of the product.
When the compatibilizer 1 was added (comparative example 4), the structure of the compatibilizer 1 was greatly different from MXD6, no obvious compatibilization was observed, and neither the transparency nor barrier properties of the product were improved.
When the molecular weight of the MXD6-PET block copolymer is too small (comparative example 5) or too large (comparative example 6), the intended compatibilizing effect cannot be achieved because of the high mismatch in melt viscosities of the MXD6-PET block copolymer and the matrix resin, and the MXD6 dispersed phase is large in size, and the properties of the corresponding blend and bottle are deteriorated.
The foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that modifications and additions may be made to those skilled in the art without departing from the method of the present invention, which modifications and additions are also to be considered as within the scope of the present invention.
