V. Abetz et R. Stadler, ABC AND BAC TRIBLOCK COPOLYMERS - MORPHOLOGICAL ENGINEERING BY VARIATION OF THE BLOCK SEQUENCE, Macromolecular symposia, 113, 1997, pp. 19-26
Different morphologies and phase transitions of ternary triblock copol
ymers with different block sequences (ABC and BAC) are discussed quali
tatively. The interplay between interfacial energies and elastic energ
ies of the different blocks leads to various morphologies and enhances
or prevents mixing of different blocks, depending on composition and
topology.
