Amphiphilic Diblock Copolymer Surface
10 11 Both visible and infrared (IR) spectroscopic ellipsometry have been employed to study the 12 structure of thin layers of bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM) adsorbed on poly(acrylic acid13 block-methyl methacrylate) (PAA-b-PMMA) copolymer and poly(methyl methacrylate) 14 surfaces at three pH values (3, 7 and 10). The adsorbed mucin layer on the copolymer surface 15 had the greatest thickness ...
متن کاملDiblock Copolymer / Homopolymer Blends: Derivation of a Density Functional Theory
Melts of diblock copolymer / homopolymer blends exhibit multiscale phase separation: (i) macrophase separation into homopolymerand copolymer-rich macrodomains followed by (ii) microphase separation into Aand B-rich microdomains within the copolymer-rich macrodomains (cf. [16, 17, 26]). Following our previous derivation in [6], we derive a density functional theory for blends. This theory has be...
متن کاملAnalytical Weak-Segregation Theory of Bicontinuous Phases in Diblock Copolymers
We compute phase diagrams for diblock copolymers in the mean-field weaksegregation regime as a function of the fraction f of A-monomers and the repulsive interaction XN. We include the ordered bicontinuous double-diamond (OBDD) phase [space
متن کاملStimuli-response of charged diblock copolymer brushes.
Following our previous work on the solvent-response of uncharged diblock copolymer brushes (D. Meng and Q. Wang, J. Chem. Phys. 130, 134904 (2009)), we have performed continuum self-consistent field calculations to study the response (i.e., changes of brush height and surface-layer composition) of diblock brushes with only one block charged to various external stimuli, including solvent selecti...
متن کاملNanorheology of Adsorbed Diblock Copolymer Layers
We investigate the mechanical properties of ultra-thin layers of polystyrene/poly (2-vinylpyridine) (PS/P2VP) block copolymers by means of a Surface Forces Apparatus adapted to operate as a rheometer at the molecular level. Two systems are studied: "brush/wall" and "brush/brush". A comparison of the normal force curves shows that when brushes are compressed against each other, they contract rat...
