We report a ternary system of poly(styrene‐ co ‐acrylonitrile) (SAN), poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), and multi‐walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites prepared by both a solution blending method and the SOAM. The MWCNT content in the composites was optimized by both TGA and mechanical characterization of binary mixtures of SAN/MWCNT and PVC/MWCNT composites. The dispersion of MWCNTs in the miscible SAN/PVC blends was characterized by FT‐Raman spectroscopy, FE‐SEM, and FE‐TEM. The distribution of MWCNTs in the SAN/PVC blends was examined in terms of their wetting coefficients and minimization of the interfacial energy. Composites prepared using the SOAM method showed superior physical properties to the SAN/PVC blends and SAN/PVC/MWCNT composites prepared using the solution blending method.
