Abstract The phase diagram of blends of poly(vinylidene fluoride) and poly (ethyl acrylate) was established by X-ray scattering, optical microscopy and calorimetric techniques. Structure formation, involving phase separation and coarsening was analyzed as a function of temperature variations and annealing times. The variations consisted of increasing or decreasing the temperature stepwise, starting either in the one-phase or in the two-phase state of the melt.
