The nonisothermal crystallization and melting behavior of a poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) blend with polyamide 6 (PA6) were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. The results indicate that the crystallization parameters for PPS become modified to a greater extent than those for PA6 in the blends. The PPS and PA6 crystallize at high temperature as a result of blending. The crystallization temperatures of PPS in its blends are always higher than that of pure PPS and are independent of the melting temperature and the residence time at that temperature. The PPS crystallization peak becomes narrower and the crystallization temperature shifts to a higher temperature, suggesting a faster rate of crystallization as a result of blending with PA6. This enhancement in the nucleation of PPS could be attributed to the possible presence of interfacial interactions between the component polymers to induce heterogeneous nucleation. On the other hand, the increase in the crystallization temperature of PA6 can be attributed to the heterogeneous nucleation provided by the already crystallized PPS. The heterogeneous nucleation induced by interfacial interactions depends on the temperature at which the polymers remain in the molten state and on the storage time at this temperature.
