Molecular Dynamics Study of Polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene oxide) Asymmetric Diblock Copolymer Systems

LANGMUIR, 33(36), 8856–8868.

By: M. Dobies, M. Makrocka-Rydzyk, J. Jenczykt, M. Jarek, R. Spontak n  & S. Jurga

TL;DR: In marked contrast to the thermal activation of the α process as discerned in both copolymers, the αc process appears to be a sensitive probe of the copolymer nanostructure, which can be explained in terms of the greater constraint imposed by the glassy PS matrix on the PEO blocks comprising smaller cylindrical microdomains.
