Scaling Laws in Microphase Separation of Diblock Copolymers
In this note, we study a nonlocal variational problem modeling microphase separation of diblock copolymers ([22], [3], [21]). We apply certain new tools developed in [5] to determine the principal part of the asymptotic expansion of the minimum free energy. That is, we prove a scaling law for the minimum energy and confirm that it is attained by a simple periodic lamellar structure. A previous ...
متن کاملKinetic theory of microphase separation in block copolymers
A semiphenomenological theory that has the advantage of taking into account nonlinear and nonlocal contributions in the free energy for microphase separation of block copolymers is proposed. A kinetic nonlinear equation defining the process of structure formation from a melt is obtained, and its analytical solution at the melt-structure transition temperature is examined. In this region, the st...
متن کاملMicrophase separation at the surface of block copolymers, as studied with atomic force microscopy.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is used to study the phase separation process occurring in block copolymers in the solid state. The simultaneous measurement of the amplitude and the phase of the oscillating cantilever in the tapping mode operation provides the surface topography along with the cartography of the microdomains of different mechanical properties. This technique thus allows to charac...
متن کاملMicrophase segregation in molten randomly grafted copolymers
We study microphase ordering of molten randomly grafted copolymers ~RGCs! by using a mean field theory and the replica method to calculate the quenched average. Our results illustrate that in the weak segregation limit ~WSI!, the optimal wave vector q* of the lamellar phase formed by molten RGCs, has a temperature dependence different from either linear random copolymers ~LRCs! or diblock copol...
متن کاملMicrophase Separation and Rheological Properties of Polyurethane Melts. 1. Effect of Block Length
A series of polyesterurethanes with differing block length and constant composition have been synthesized for rheological studies. Hard segments based on isophorone diisocyanate and 1,4butanediol and soft segments based on polycaprolactone to ensure high thermal stability and to prevent high melting point crystallinity enabled long-duration rheological characterization at high temperatures. DSC...
