C. Neumann et al., INDICATION OF AN ORDER-ORDER-TRANSITION BY A PARTIAL DISORDERING IN ABC-TRIBLOCK COPOLYMERS, Polymer bulletin, 36(1), 1996, pp. 43-50
opylene)-block-polyethylethylene-block-polystyrene (PEP-b-PEE-b-PS) tr
iblock copolymers were synthesized by anionic polymerization and subse
quent hydrogenation of soprene-block-poly-1,2-butadiene-block-polystyr
ene triblock copolymers (1,4PI-b-1,2PB-b-PS). Differential scanning ca
lorimetry and dynamic mechanical spectroscopy reveal an order-order tr
ansition which is induced by the mixing of PEP and PEE above their res
pective order-disorder transition (ODT).
