Abstract
We have used infrared microdensitometry to study the mutual diffusion across an originally sharp interface between two saturated polybutadienes of degrees of polymerization NA and N B (>>Ne, the entanglement length) for three different ratios N A / N B . The extent of diffusion broadening suggests that the mutual diffusion coefficient is controlled by the mobility of the faster moving (shorter) polymer chains, indicating that convective flow may be important in such mixing phenomena.
