Tóm tắt

AbstractThis paper describes the miscibility and self‐assembly, mediated by hydrogen‐bonding interactions, of new block copolymer/nanoparticle blends. The morphologies adopted by the immiscible poly[(ε‐caprolactone)‐block‐(4‐vinyl pyridine)] (PCL‐b‐P4VP) diblock copolymer changes upon increasing the number of competitive hydrogen‐bonding interactions after adding increasing amounts of octaphenol polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (OP‐POSS). Transmission electron microscopy reveals morphologies that exhibit high degrees of long‐range order, such as cylindrical and spherical structures, at relatively low OP‐POSS contents, and short‐range order or disordered structures at higher OP‐POSS contents. Analyses performed using differential scanning calorimetry, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, and FT‐IR spectroscopy provide positive evidence that the pyridyl units of the P4VP block are significantly stronger hydrogen‐bond acceptors toward the OH group of OP‐POSS than are the CO groups of the PCL block, thereby resulting in excluded and confined PCL phases.magnified image
