Abstract: On the basis of phase separation temperatures (Tc) for poly (methyl methacrylate )/poly-(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) (PMMA/SAN) blends with different compositions, measured by small angle laser light scattering (SALLS), we have studied the dynamic rheological behavior of these blends at various temperatures below, near and above Tc.The results showed that the time-temperature superposition principle could be applied and the linear viscoelastic response emerged in the terminal region at temperatures below Tc.However, it was found that the breakdown of time-temperature superposition principle appeared, and viscoelastic response was deviated from the linear behavior in the terminal region at temperatures near and above Tc.

Key words: Poly (methyl methacrylate) /poly (styrene-co-acrylonitrile) blends, Dynamic rheological behavior, Time-temperature superposition, Phase separation
