摘要

Based on the disordered miscible block copolymer P4VP-b-P4HBA

we constructed the ordered microphase separation structure via blending with amphiphilic surfactants. Through the noncovalent interaction between P4VP and different amphiphilic molecules. ordered microstructures were obtained

giving rise to a new perspective for the fabrication of hierarchical nanostructures and nanomaterials from miscible block copolymers.

Abstract

Miscible disordered block copolymers (BCPs) are rarely studied due to the limits in self-assembly into ordered microstructures. Herein

we proposed a facile method for the transformation of disordered miscible BCPs to comb-like BCPs with well-ordered microphase separation structures

via

blending with amphiphilic surfactants. In this work

poly(4-vinyl pyridine-

-hydroxybutylacrylate) (P4VP-

-P4HBA) was applied as a model of miscible disordered BCPs and the microphase separation was induced

via

blending with surfactants of dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) and 3-pentadecylphenol (PDP). The ordered microstructures including spherical and cylindrical morphologies were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) investigation. These ordered microstructures thermal sensitive

in which ordered and disordered transformation (ODT) was observed in the blend of P4VP-

-P4HBA and PDP whereas it disappeared in the blend of P4VP-

-P4HBA and DBSA. The results show that the thermal stability of the ordered microstructures are strongly depends on the interactions between the miscible BCPs and surfactants

which investigated by

in situ

SAXS and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). The combination of miscible BCPs and surfactant creates a feasible strategy to fabricate ordered nanostructures

which could be employed to develop complicated nanomaterials.
