This work deals with a compatibility study of blends based on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) by means of the determination of the polymer–polymer interaction parameter through two different and separated methods. Firstly, the well‐known Flory–Hüggins interaction parameter was determined from melting point depression analysis and subsequently from T g measurements by applying an expression proposed by Kim and Burns. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
