Pressure effects on entropically driven phase transitions in block copolymers
The binary polymer system of polystyrene and poly(n-pentyl methacrylate) was recently found to exhibit closed-loop type phase behavior. This is the first known example of a weakly interacting system exhibiting such a phase diagram. At atmospheric pressure the block copolymer displays both a lower di...
