Nucleation of ordered phases in block copolymers.
Nucleation of various ordered phases in block copolymers is studied by examining the free-energy landscape within the self-consistent field theory. The minimum energy path (MEP) connecting two ordered phases is computed using a recently developed string method. The shape, size, and free-energy barrier of critical nuclei are obtained from the MEP, providing information about the emergence of a s...
متن کاملDiscovering new ordered phases of block copolymers
We propose a new and general method for discovering novel ordered phases of block copolymer melts. The method involves minimizing a free energy functional in an arbitrary unit cell with respect to the composition profile and the dimensions of the unit cell, without any prior assumption of the microphase symmetry. Varying the initial conditions allows to search for different stable and metastabl...
متن کاملA strategy to explore stable and metastable ordered phases of block copolymers.
Block copolymers with their rich phase behavior and ordering transitions have become a paradigm for the study of structured soft materials. A major challenge in the study of the phase behavior of block copolymers is to obtain different stable and metastable phases of the system. A strategy to discover complex ordered phases of block copolymers within the self-consistent field theory framework i...
متن کاملPreparation of Reactive and Thermal Stable Hyperbranched Graft Copolymers/ Clay Nanocomposite via ‘Living’ Free Radical Polymerization
Exfoliated poly (Chloromethyl styrene-co-styrene)-g-polyacrylonitryle/organo- modified montmorillonite [P(CMSt-co-St)-g-PAN/O-MMT] nanocomposite was synthesized through solution intercalation method by using atom transfer and nitroxide mediated radical polymerization. At first, poly (chloromethyl styrene-costyrene) copolymer was synthesized by nitroxide - mediated “living” free radical polyme...
متن کاملOrigin of epitaxies between ordered phases of block copolymers
The origin of epitaxial relationships between different ordered phases of diblock copolymers is studied by examining the nucleation barrier of an arbitrarily oriented nucleus. It is found that the orientation-dependence of the nucleation barrier exhibits a very corrugated landscape with a few deep minima, corresponding to preferred crystallographic orientations of the nuclei. These minima are i...
