Combining supramolecular principles with block copolymer self-assembly offers unique
possibilitiesto create materials with responsive and/or tunable properties. The present …

The terms" blend" and" alloy" describe intimate mixtures of ingredients. However, while"
blend" may indicate a true molecular solution (ie, blended whiskeys), the term" alloy" has …

A review is presented of theoretical and experimental studies on self-organization processes
in ion-containing polymers (polyelectrolytes and ionomers). The high probability of various …

Block copolymers are well‐known for their large number of microphase morphologies on
mesoscopic length scales. After a short review of the different morphologies observed in …

Complexation in symmetric solutions of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes is studied
theoretically. We include polyion cross-linking due to formation of thermoreversible ionic …

The microphase separation in melts of asymmetric triblock and trigraft, periodic polyblock
and polygraft, and star-shaped copolymers of two types ((An)*(Bm)* and (A „Bm)*) is …

The phase structure of a mixture of weakly charged polyelectrolytes in the presence of
solvent, counterions, and low molecular salt is studied theoretically. The most important …

The phase behavior of ABC triblock copolymer melts is studied using weak segregation
theory and numerical self-consistent field theory (SCFT). We focus on nonfrustrated systems …

We present a detailed comparison of simulations of disordered melts of symmetric AB
diblock copolymers to predictions of the renormalized one-loop (ROL) theory. The behaviors …

The order− disorder transition (ODT) and the ordering kinetics have been studied in four-arm
star diblock copolymer melts of styrene (corona) and isoprene (core) by rheology and SAXS …
