Lamellar-in-lamellar structure of binary linear multiblock copolymers.
A theoretical description of the lamellar-in-lamellar self-assembly of binary A-b-(B-b-A)(m)-b-B-b-A multiblock copolymers in the strong segregation limit is presented. The essential difference between this binary multiblock system and the previously considered C-b-(B-b-A)(m)-b-B-b-C ternary multiblock copolymer system is discussed. Considering the situation with long end blocks, the free energ...
متن کاملParallel versus perpendicular lamellar-within-lamellar self-assembly of A-b-(B-b-A)(n)-b-C ternary multiblock copolymer melts.
Different types of lamellar-within-lamellar structure formations in A-b-(B-b-A)(n)-b-C terpolymer melts, with a volume fraction of components A, B, and C in the ratio of 1:1:2, are analyzed in the strong segregation limit using a simple theoretical approach. We consider the lamellar, parallel lamellar-within-lamellar, and perpendicular lamellar-within-lamellar self-assembled states. The influen...
متن کاملEdge dislocations in copolymer lamellar films
Thin films of symmetric diblock copolymers on a flat solid surface form lamellae parallel to the substrate. The uppermost layer of the film may be incomplete and made of domains with a thickness equal to the lamellar period L. We investigate these domains both theoretically and experimentally. The domain edge is associated with a dislocation in the lamellar order which has been observed by tran...
متن کاملMechanical Behavior of Osteoporotic Bone at Sub-Lamellar Length Scales
*Correspondence: Asa H. Barber , School of Engineering, University of Portsmouth, Portsmouth PO1 2UP, UK e-mail: [email protected] Osteoporosis is a disease known to promote bone fragility but the effect on the mechanical properties of bone material, which is independent of geometric effects, is particularly unclear. To address this problem, micro-beams of osteoporotic bone were prepared us...
متن کاملElastic moduli of multiblock copolymers in the lamellar phase.
We study the linear elastic response of multiblock copolymer melts in the lamellar phase, where the molecules are composed of tethered symmetric AB diblock copolymers. We use a self-consistent field theory method, and introduce a real space approach to calculate the tensile and shear moduli as a function of block number. The former is found to be in qualitative agreement with experiment. We fin...
