Multiple inclusion morphology

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007658",
  "term": "Multiple inclusion morphology",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A multiphase morphology in which dispersed domains of one polymer each enclose many small domains of a second polymer. The enclosed polymer can match the composition of the continuous phase, as in the salami-type rubber particles of high-impact polystyrene, which hold many polystyrene occlusions inside a polystyrene matrix.",

    "salami-like morphology"
