Coalescence in molten quiescent polymer blends induced by van der Waals forces is studied theoretically. Interaction between a droplet and its nearest neighbor keeping spherical shape during drainage of the matrix trapped between them is considered. It is assumed that droplets having a time dependent radius R are randomly distributed in the blend through the whole course of the coalescence. Various approaches to calculation of the average time of coalescence, tc are compared. Calculated dependence of R on the time of coalescence, t, is compared with experimental results for polypropylene/ethylene–propylene rubber (PP/EPR) blends. Experimental results show decreasing slope of R3 vs. t dependence, especially for a higher content of dispersed EPR. Theories using average h0 or direct averaging of tc predict somewhat smaller rate of coalescence than that experimentally determined for PP/EPR blends. Reasons of these differences are discussed
