摘要
Concentration fluctuations in polymer blends and their change after a temperature jump were studied by time-dependent small angle X-ray scattering experiments. Measurements were conducted on homogeneous mixtures of polystyrene and a partially brominated derivative. Structure factors in thermal equilibrium show the form given by the random phase approximation. Relaxation occurs on the time scale of minutes and is nonexponential, becoming slower with time. Initial relaxation rates increase with increasing scattering vectors in accordance with theoretical predictions.
