The miscibility was investigated in blends of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and styrene‐acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymers with different acrylonitrile (AN) contents. The 50/50 wt % blends of PMMA with the SAN copolymers containing 5, 35, and 50 wt % of AN were immiscible, while the blend with copolymer containing 25 wt % of AN was miscible. The morphologies of PMMA/SAN blends were characterized by virtue of scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the miscibility of PMMA/SAN blends were in consistence with the morphologies observed. Moreover, the different morphologies in blends of PMMA and SAN were also observed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011
