Effect of immiscible polyamide 6 (PA6) on the melt rheology and stretch-induced crystal transformation of poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix is reported. PA6 is dispersed as submicron droplets in the PVDF matrix, responsible for significant enhancement in the melt elasticity. Nevertheless, crystallization habits of PVDF matrix from melt are little affected by submicron PA6 droplets, and the α-form of PVDF prevails in the blends. Upon mechanical stretching, the α-form is converted to the β-form, which is remarkably reduced with the increasing of PA6 content in the blends. It could be correlated with the decreased tensile stress in the presence of submicron PA6 droplets that act as stress concentrators. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.
