Abstract
Abstract The self-assembly of a poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(propylene oxide)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) blockcopolymer (EO13PO30EO13) in the presence of water was investigated. The phases have been studied with the mesoscopic simulation technique Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD). The micellar, hexagonal, lamellar, bicontinuous and inverse micellar phase have been identified with this method and showed remarkable agreement with the experimental phase behavior. This work showed that the Dissipative Particle Dynamics simulations are also suitable for complicated polymer systems such as the EO13PO30EO13 triblock copolymer.
