Morphological Changes Induced by Addition of Polystyrene to Dextran-Polystyrene Block Copolymer Solutions

Summary: In this work we discuss the self-assembling behaviour in solution of a block copolymer, dextran-block-polystyrene, in the presence of homopolystyrene (PS) which allows to decrease the hydrophilic fraction f of the mixture. Dynamic and static light scattering experiments have been carried out in water-miscible solvents (DMSO and THF) to probe the formation of supramolecular structures. Results have been compared to those obtained with a block copolymer solution having the same hydrophilic fraction f. Interestingly, the morphology of the self-assembled structures was the same for a given value of f.

Morphology of ABC triblock copolymer/homopolymer blend systems

Morphological variations of ABC triblock copolymers through the blending of B or A/C homopolymers, all with short chain lengths, were studied experimentally. The samples were symmetric ISP triblock copolymers, where I, S, and P denote polyisoprene, polystyrene, and poly(2‐vinylpyridine), and component homopolymers. Microphase‐separated structures of the solvent‐cast films were observed with transmission electron microscopy and small‐angle X‐ray scattering. For an ISP/S system, the lattice constant of the tricontinuous gyroid structure (G‐structure) increased with an increase in the volume fraction of S (?_s) if the amount of added homopolymer was small, but it reached a certain limit, reflecting the fact that the midblock chain had a limit for chain stretching. For I/ISP/P blends, on the contrary, the lattice constant of the G‐structure continued increasing with decreasing ?_s. This result shows that the I and P domains did not have a limit for chain stretching because the two end blocks had free ends. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Syntheses of homopolymer and water-soluble polymers containing tetraphenylporphinatomanganese(III) complex,and ligand substitution reaction for anionic ligand

A vinyl monomer containing the pendant tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) group, 4-vinyltetraphenylporphyrin (VTPP), was synthesized. A homopolymer (PVTPP) which is insoluble in water, and three water-soluble polymers were obtained by radical polymerization. The water-soluble polymers are two anionic polymers (PVPTSPP and PVTPP-StSO₃) and a cationic polymer (PVTPP-VPyM). PVPTSPP has sulfonic acid groups in a TPP group and very high charge density. PVTPP-StSO₃ was obtained by copolymerization of VTPP and sodium 4-styrenesulfonate. PVTPP-VPyM was obtained by quarternarization of a copolymer of VTPP and 4-vinylpyridine. Polymeric manganese(III) complexes (PMn-VTPP, PMnVPTSPP, PMnVTPP-StSO₃, and PMnVTPP-VPyM) were prepared from the polymers and manganese acetate. The acetate ligand in PMnVTPP can be easily substituted by another ligand such as Cl^?, AcO^?, OH^?, and SCN^?. The substitution reaction occurs in the interface between water and chloroform. The sulfonated homopolymer, PMnVPTSPP, cannot incorporate with anionic ligands because of the strong electrostatic repulsion. In the anionic copolymer, PMnVTPP-StSO₃, the ligand substitution reaction with SCN ligand needs activation energy of 53 kJ/mol. In the cationic polymer complex, PMnVTPP-VPyM, the OH ligand can be easily substituted with the SCN ligand and the equilibrium constant of the reaction was estimated at 1.38 × 10^?3. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Cyclic homo and block copolymers through sequential double click reactions

Well‐defined linear α‐anthracene‐ω‐maleimide functionalized polystyrene (l‐Anth‐PS‐MI) and linear α‐alkyne‐ω‐maleimide functionalized poly(tert‐butyl acrylate) (l‐alkyne‐PtBA‐MI) homopolymers, and linear α‐anthracene‐ω‐maleimide functionalized PS‐b‐PtBA (l‐Anth‐PS‐b‐PtBA‐MI) and linear α‐anthracene‐ω‐maleimide functionalized PS‐b‐poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) (l‐Anth‐PS‐b‐PCL‐MI) block copolymers were obtained via combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP)/ring opening polymerization (ROP) and azide‐alkyne click reaction strategy. Subsequently, these linear homo and block copolymers were efficiently clicked via Diels‐Alder reaction to give their corresponding cyclic homo and block copolymers at reflux temperature of toluene for 48 h under 7–4 × 10^?5 M conditions. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Comparative study of liquid-crystalline ordering in a monomer,linear polymer,and graft copolymer by the photon transmission technique

The photon transmission technique was used to study the phase transitions of a liquid crystalline acrylate monomer, 6-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4′oxy)hexyl acrylate (LC6), its homopolymer (PLC6) and its graft copolymer (GLC6) with polytetrahydrofuran grafts. The phase transitions were also confirmed by DSC and polarizing microscopy. We observed the phase transition sequence isotropic–nematic–smectic A–smectic C in the LC6 monomer. In PLC6 and GLC6 polymers, the nematic and smectic A phases appear dominant. The apparent nematic–smectic A transition is of first order in PLC6 and of second order in GLC6, with the transition temperature remaining the same. The effects of quenched random constraints introduced in GLC6 are consistent with the theory of quenched random interactions. The critical exponents were also evaluated.     

Supramolecular Structures,Organization and Surface Behavior at Interfaces

The surface behavior of Supramolecular Structures as inclusion complexes^[1] were studied. The inclusion complexes (ICs) obtained from the threading of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) with poly(ε-caprolactone) (PEC) and derivatives as precursor homopolymers were prepared and characterized by ¹H-NMR and FT-IR Microscopy. In order to investigate the influence of the chemical structure of the other precursor homopolymers as poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(tetrahydrofuran) (PTHF), the inclusion complexes (ICs) were also obtained from the threading of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) with these polymers. Surface pressure-area isotherm (π-A) at the air-water interface were determined by the Langmuir Technique for all the ICs and their polymers. Due to solubility reasons, different spreading solvents were used. In a set of control experiments, it was observed that the spreading volume did not influence significantly the isotherms for any polymeric systems studied. It was found that the hydrophobic and hydrophilic balance changes with the increasing of the methylene and hydroxyls groups number in the chemical structures of the precursor polymers involved in the ICs. The degree of hydrophobicity of the different supramolecular systems was also estimated from the determination of the surface free energy (SE) values using the wettability measurements.^[2] In order to describe the experimental behavior of the ICs and the precursor polymers, molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) were performed. The radial distribution functions (RDF) between water molecules and hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties of the polymeric systems studied were analized. By this way it was possible to visualize the orientation and the organization of these supramolecular structures at the air-water interface.
