Glass Transitions of Copolymers
Homopolymer A has a Tg of 80C, homopolymer B has Tg of 70C. Estimate Tg of a 30/70 random copolymer of A and B. What assumptions should be made? Compare all relationships that can be used and discuss which is more accurate.

Solution Summary
This solution gives an explanation of how to estimate Tg of a 30/70 random copolymer as well as the assumptions included in using that method.
Degree of crosslinking vs temperature for different polymers
Please explain to me how to sketch a graph of temperature against the degree of cross linking for the 4 types of polymers.
Use the figure below to show how the four classes of polymers are related to each other. Your figure should be properly labeled to indicate the important mechanical properties associated with each polymer and how the degree of cross linking influences any important property transition.
Please find the attached file for the full description.
