Studying the Morphology & Fire behavior of Poly(ethylene terephthalate)/Polycarbonate Blends


Abstract in English

In the present paper, we study the effect of both morphology and compatibilization on the reaction to fire of blends of recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) with recycled polycarbonate (PC).
