Cellulose acetate phthalate/ethyl cellulose blends were investigated by means of attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis (TGA-DTGA), shear viscosity and oscillatory shear tests. The studies showed a higher thermal stability, induced by the occurrence of hydrogen bonding, more predominant in ethyl cellulose and blends with higher content of ethyl cellulose. The effect of solution concentrations in N,N-dimethylacetamide, blend compositions and shear rate on the rheological functions generated regions with properties typical for liquid crystalline solutions in the shear field. These studies are suggested to be useful in identification of liquid crystal properties, required in some electrotechnical applications.
