...For very asymmetric copolymers, mean-field theory predicts a first-order transition into ordered spherical phases (face-centered cubic (fcc) or bcc) at χN smaller than the mean-field spinodal (χN)S (Matsen and Bates, 1996)....

...In the case of longer chains with N̄ = 10(8), the ODT occurs before the glass transitions; this is the expected behavior in the asymptotic limit N̄ → ∞, since in this limit the glass-transition lines approach the mean-field spinodal whereas the ODT into the bcc phase takes place at a finite distance below the spinodal (Matsen and Bates, 1996)....

...Theoretically these structures are well described by the self-consistent mean-field theory (Matsen and Schick, 1994; Matsen and Bates, 1996)....

...Since the successful predictions of the ordered structures in diblock copolymer melts (Matsen and Schick, 1994), self-consistent mean field theory has been widely used to study the phase diagrams in diblock and multi-block copolymer systems, and polymer blends....
