Cocrystallization and phase segregation in blends of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) [PHBV] and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxypropionate) [PHBP] at 80−100 °C were analyzed through the in situ observation of crystallization by FTIR microscopy and the measurement of melting curve by DSC. To trace the crystallization process of the blend components separately by a FTIR microscope, deuterated PHBV (D-PHBV) is blended with normal PHBP. The C−D and CO stretching bands of the IR spectra are used to trace the crystallization of D-PHBV and the whole blend, respectively. Five pairs of PHBV and PHBP were selected so as to make variations in the spherulite growth rates (G) of components and their difference. Three of them are the pairs of which PHBV has a higher G than PHBP. They show four types of crystalline phase structures with various extent of phase segregation: complete cocrystallization, cocrystallization forming PHBV-rich cocrystals, phase segregation forming PHBV-rich cocrystals and PHBP ...
