Double-Gyroid Network Morphology in Tapered Diblock Copolymers
Raghunath Roy,Jong Keun Park,Wen-Shiue Young,Sarah E. Mastroianni,Maëva S. Tureau,Thomas H. Epps +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that it is possible to manipulate the copolymer composition profile between blocks in a diblock copolymers, allowing significant control over the T(ODT), while maintaining the ability to form complex network structures.

Well-Ordered Wrinkling Patterns on Chemically Oxidized Poly(dimethylsiloxane) Surfaces
TL;DR: In this paper, a poly(dimethylsiloxane) sheet was bent and then soaked in a mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid, and the sheet was made flat again and washed with water.

PDMS network blends of amphiphilic acrylic copolymers with poly(ethylene glycol)‐fluoroalkyl side chains for fouling‐release coatings. I. Chemistry and stability of the film surface
Elisa Martinelli,Mahesh K. Sarvothaman,Michele Alderighi,Giancarlo Galli,Ela Mielczarski,Jerzy A. Mielczarski +5 more
TL;DR: The surface segregation of the fluoroalkyl segments of the amphiphilic copolymers was found to be responsible for the high enrichment in fluorine concentration within 10 nm of the coating surface as mentioned in this paper.

Ordered mesoporous molecular sieves synthesized by a liquid-crystal template mechanism
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of mesoporous inorganic solids from calcination of aluminosilicate gels in the presence of surfactants is described, in which the silicate material forms inorganic walls between ordered surfactant micelles.

Block Copolymer Thermodynamics: Theory and Experiment
TL;DR: Block copolymers are macromolecules composed of sequences, or blocks, of chemically distinct repeat units that make possible the sequential addition of monomers to various carbanion-ter minated ("living") linear polymer chains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Block Copolymers—Designer Soft Materials
TL;DR: The Knitting Pattern as mentioned in this paper is a block copolymer that was discovered by Reimund Stadler and his coworkers and reflects a delicate free-energy minimization that is common to all blockcopolymer materials.
