Abstract
Abstract
A series of three-armed star polystyrene-block-poly(n-butylacrylate) copolymers (PS-b-PBA)3 were synthesized to study the phase-transition behavior of the copolymers. The order-to-disorder transition temperature has been determined by oscillatory at different temperatures and dynamic temperature sweep at a fixed frequency. Moreover, the micro-phase separation in the block copolymers has been evaluated by time–temperature superposition, while the free volume and the active energy of the copolymers have been calculated. Interestingly, active energy decreased with the increase in the molecular weight of the PBA components. To further determine the order-to-disorder transition temperature precisely, small angle X-ray scattering was performed at different temperatures. These results confirm that the chain mobility of the star-shaped copolymers is strongly dependent on the arm molecular weight of the star polymers, which will be beneficial for the processing and material preparation of the block copolymers.
