Polydimethylsiloxane/poly blends were prepared by radical copolymerization of methyl methacrylate and divinylbenzene in the presence of PDMS. Elastomers based on PDMS/PMMA blends were formed by cross-linking PDMS with methyltriethoxysilane . Mechanical property measurements show that the elastomers thus formed exhibit superior tensile strength with respect to general room temperature vulcanized silicone elastomers containing silica. Moreover, investigations were carried out on the elastomers by extraction, scanning electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry measurements. SEM shows that the elastomer has a microphase-separated structure consisting of dispersed PMMA domains within a continuous PDMS matrix. DSC result shows that the elastomers display two glass transition temperatures and confirm the incompatible nature of PDMS and PMMA.收起
