Abstract in Portuguese
Polímeros líquido-cristalinos (LCPs) e poliestirenos comerciais são imiscíveis. A literatura relata melhoria na miscibilidade dessas blendas através da utilização de polímeros modificados. Misturas de polímeros com baixa massa molar são mais miscíveis do que blendas similares com polímeros de alta massa molar. Neste trabalho, blendas de poliestireno sintetizado com baixa massa molar (Mv = 11000 e 70000 g/mol) e poliestireno comercial (Mv = 223000 g/mol) e polímero líquidocristalino termotrópico sintetizado, poli(metil-1,4-dioxifenileno 4,4'-dicarbonil-1,10- dibenzoil-oxi-decano) (Mn = 9500 g/mol, Mw = 24000 g/mol, Mw/Mn = 2,5), foram preparadas por solubilização em clorofórmio e por coprecipitação. A ocorrência ou não da miscibilidade nas amostras foram estudadas através da viscosimetria, de calorimetria exploratória diferencial (DSC) e análise térmica dinâmico-mecânica (DMTA). Os resultados obtidos foram comparados com as micrografias obtidas por microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). As análises quantitativas das micrografias MEV das misturas de LCP com PS 11000 g/mol revelaram que os diâmetros das partículas de PS variaram de 27 a 52 nanômetros em blendas (PS/LCP) com composição relativa em massa de 70/30, 50/50, 30/70, formando uma estrutura micro-heterogênea. Já as misturas formadas com PS com Mv = 70000 g/mol apresentaram estrutura cocontínua para as mesmas composições de blendas, que confirmam a imiscibilidade das mesmas, conforme observado por DSC e DMTA.

Abstract in English
Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) and commercial polystyrene blends are known to be immiscible. The literature reports improvements on miscibility through polymer modification. Mixtures of amorphous isotropic polymers with low molar mass are more miscible than similar blends with high molar mass polymers. In this work, blends of synthesized polystyrenes with low molar masses (Mv = 11000 e 70000 g/mol) and commercial polystyrene (Mv = 223000 g/mol), and synthesized thermotropic liquid crystal polymer poly(methyl-1,4-dioxiphenylene-4,4'-dicarbonyl- 1,10-dibenzoyl-oxydecane), (Mn = 9500 g/mol, Mw = 24000 g/mol, Mw/Mn = 2.5) were prepared by solubilization in chloroform and co-precipitation. The presence or absence of miscibility in the samples were studied by viscometry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanic thermal analysis (DMTA). The results are compared to the morphology observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Quantitative analysis of the micrographs of the blends by SEM showed that the blends with PS 11000 g/mol showed diameters of the PS particles in the range 27-52 nanometers at all compositions, forming a micro-heterogeneous structure. In contrast, the blends formed with PS Mw = 70000 g/mol showed co-continuous structure for the blends, confirming the immiscibility as observed by DSC and DMTA .
