Two-dimensional uid with competing interactions exhibiting microphase separation: Theory for bulk and interfacial properties. Colloidal particles that are confined to an interface such as the air-water interface are an example of a two-dimensional fluid. Such dispersions have been observed to spontaneously form cluster and stripe morphologies in certain systems with isotropic pair potentials be...

4.1 CHAPTER SUMMARY The effect of the variables of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) soft segment length, hard segment type and content as well as choice of chain extender (its MW and symmetry) on the morphology of segmented polyurethane and polyurea copolymers was investigated. The methods of dynamic mechanic analysis, small angle x-ray scattering, atomic force microscopy, and mechanical testing wer...

This paper explores fundamental mechanisms of negatively thermodynamic toughening during microphase separations double network (DN) hydrogels, which have dynamically coordinating components with adjustable swelling behavior and designable multi-shape memory effect (multi-SME). Based on the Flory–Huggins theory Fick's second law, a model is formulated to study diffusive dynamics, cooling-trigger...

Herein, we compared the microphase-separation behavior and mechanical properties of cellulose- amylose-based block copolymers (BCPs). Various cellooligosaccharide triacetate-b-poly(?-decanolactone)-b-cellooligosaccharide triacetates (AcCeln-b-PDL-b-AcCelns), which are cellulose-based ABA-type BCPs, with PDL molecular weights approximately 5, 10, 20 kg mol–1 volume fractions 0.65, 0.77, 0.87, we...
