TY - JOUR A1 - Abetz, Volker A1 - Jiang, S. M. A1 - Gopfert, A. T1 - Novel pattern formation in blends of asymmetric ABC triblock terpolymers N2 - A series of polystyrene-block-poly(1,2-butadiene)-block-poly(2-vinyl-pyridine) (SBV) triblock terpolymers were used to prepare blends with symmetric polystyrene-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine) (SV) and poly(2-vinylpyridine)-block-poly- (cyclohexyl methacrylate) (VC) diblock copolymers. Morphological characterization was carried out by transmission electron microscopy. These triblock terpolymers self-assemble into various core-shell type or lamellar morphologies. In the SBV/SV blends, macrophase separation between the two block copolymers, continuous centrosymmetric lamellae and stacks of non-centrosymmetric lamellae with anti-parallel orientation were found. In the blends of SBV/VC, macrophase separation was never observed, what is due to the specific interactions between S and C domains. These systems showed among other morphologies also a cylindrical morphology in which rings surround the cylinders Y1 - 2004 SN - 1618-7229 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Birshtein, Tatjana M. A1 - Polotsky, A.
