Abstract

The present investigation is about the synthesis and structural characterization of polyvinylchloride (PVC)–polyamide (PA) blend. PVC and PA were mixed in different proportion, i.e., 70:30 and 60:40, and final sample in the form of films of ~40 μm was peeled out from the dried dip-coated glass slides. Prepared films were characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and UV–visible spectroscopy. Formation of new bands was observed in the FTIR spectrum of PVC with the increase of PA’s percentage in composition, which confirms the presence of guest polymer in the prepared blend. UV–visible analysis indicated the change in optical band gap with variation of PA’s composition in PVC/PA blend.
