Commercially preface of a polymer prepared from a new monomer is uncertain and enormously expensive. A strategy to introduce new products into the market without a large investment is to take dissimilar polymers, amines and blend them together to make a new product with unique properties. The blending of polyvinyl acetate, polysulfone and diethanol amine, methyl diethanol amine, mono ethanol amine are examined with dimethyl acetamide solvent, which gives the results of appearance, pH and viscosity values by using measuring device viscometer and general pH testing technique. Through getting these results, the intrinsic miscibility of the mixture was finally established which shows that the homogenous or heterogeneous blends are depending on the blend preparation method and percentage of polymers and amines. The achievement of this advance has been restricted, because the mechanical properties of the blend with amines are classically worse than a simple mixing law would predict. © Maxwell Scientific Organization, 2014. date: 2014 publisher: Maxwell Science Publications official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84896823648&doi=10.19026%2frjaset.7.442&partnerID=40&md5=f20c403431b63cb7f5f25885d3fc38d8 id_number: 10.19026/rjaset.7.442 full_text_status: none publication: Research Journal of Applied Sciences, Engineering and Technology volume: 7 number: 8 pagerange: 1634-1641 refereed: TRUE issn: 20407459 citation: Mushtaq, A. and Mukhtar, H.B. and Shariff, A.M.
