Time-temperature superposition of phase separating polymer blend films

We have examined the structure formations in symmetric blend films of polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) during phase separation and coalescence in the melt. We qualitatively verify the principle of time-temperature superposition by observing morphology development in which characteristic structures develop independently of annealing temperature and initial morphology. Domain structures proceed to qualitatively similar morphologies regardless of the initial morphology due to the intrinsic viscosity of the blend films.
