The extrudate swell and the dynamic rheological properties of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) and polyamide 6 (PA6) binary blends were investigated at 240-degrees-C. The extrudate swell of the blend varies with the viscosity ratio and composition of constituents, and it is several times larger than that of homopolymers when the viscosity ratio of constituents is around unity. The dynamic oscillatory data could be interpreted by Oldroyd's emulsion model proposed by Graebling, et al. These results suggest that the extrudate swell is caused by the shape recovery of the dispersed particles. A semi-empirical method to estimate the terminal relaxation time with experimental data was introduced, and a clear correlation between the extrudate swell and the terminal relaxation time was obtained.
