Kinetic 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 in nonequilibrium biomembranes.
Compositional heterogeneities of cell membranes are thought to play an important role in many physiological processes. We study how variations in the membrane composition can be driven by nonthermal fluctuating forces and therefore show how these can occur relatively far from any critical point for the membrane. We show that the membrane steady state is not only controlled by the strength of th...
متن کاملEffects of inhomogeneities of cross-links on a microphase separation of polymer mixtures
We generalize de Gennes' theory of the microphase separation of cross-finked polymer nfixtures to take into account the spatial fluctuations of the elasticity constant c, preventing the mixture from complete segregation. Within a mean-field analysis we found that the spatial fluctuations of c(r), which are assumed to obey the Poisson distribution, enlarge the size of the domains. The latter is ...
متن کاملMicrophase separation in binary polymeric micelles
2014 A theoretical analysis of microphase separation in binary micelles is presented. We consider micelles consisting of two kinds of diblock copolymers such that the micellar corona contains two chemically distinct block types (A and B). Both intramicellar and intermicellar processes may occur. We focus on intermicellar segregation occurring after a quench yielding complete intramicellar micro...
متن کاملPhase and microphase separation in polymer blends
When two different polymers are mixed, they usually demix because of the slight repulsive interaction that exists between their monomers. This is general and may be related to phase separation in two component mixtures. When the same polymer blend is cross-linked in the one phase region, elastic forces develop and do not let this to occur. There results a microphase separation, with coexistence...
