Abstract

A theoretical study of the lamellar microphase of block copolymer/selective solvent blends in which the solvent is good for one block and either good or near-θ for the other is presented. The calculations used numerical solutions to the equations of the self-consistent mean-field theory of polymer blends. Two types of systems were studied. In the first, all pure-component densities were taken to be equal, as were the two Kuhn statistical lengths, and the solvent was idealized as being athermal for one of the blocks. In the other type, realistic values for these parameters were used.
