Abstract

AbstractThe compatibilizing effect of T-shaped graft copolymers between two incompatible homopolymers A and B was studied by using the external potential dynamics (EPD) method based on dynamic self-consistent field theory. We specifically focus on the role of the concentration and the junction position of the graft copolymer on the compatibility. The blend containing compatibilizers exhibits slow dynamics during the phase separation. We observed that the compatiblizers are particularly efficient when the graft point is close to the free end of the backbone chain.
