The dynamics of compositional fluctuations in a miscible, entangled homopolymer blend of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(methyl methacrylate) were studied on length scales smaller than the polymer radii of gyration, and for times comparable to the polymers' disentanglement time. The measured relaxation rates are consistent with predictions of the reptation model, as expressed via the dynamic random-phase approximation. Moreover, the observed mode amplitudes allow for an estimate of the entanglement length in the blend.
