Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/polyphenoxy blends were prepared by melt blending. Crystalline and thermal behaviors of PET/polyphenoxy blends were verified by use of DSC. The experiment results show that the initial temperature, peak temperature, and ending temperature of cold crystallization increase with increasing phenoxy content. On the contrary, the onset melting temperature, finishing melting temperature, and peak temperature in the first heating and the secondary heating processes decrease with increasing phenoxy content. The crystallization enthalpy and melting enthalpy, as well as the crystallization rate, decrease with increasing phenoxy content. Avrami exponents of the blends are slightly higher than that of pure PET and almost independent of phenoxy content. (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
