Interpenetrating Polymer Networks

  • Reference work entry
Book cover Polymer Blends Handbook

Abstract

An interpenetrating polymer network, IPN, is defined as a blend of two or more polymers in a network form, at least one of which is synthesized and/or crosslinked in the immediate presence of the other(s). An IPN can be distinguished from polymer blends, blocks, or grafts in two ways: (1) an IPN swells, but does not dissolve in solvents, and (2) creep and flow are suppressed.
