Abstract
The properties of polymer brush in binary solvent are considered on th e base of the mean-field theory. The role of the interaction 'paramete r chi(AB) of the two components on the brush parameters was specially considered. The mixture of two precipitants was shown to be a good sol vent for the polymer brush provided that their interaction parameter c hi(AB) is sufficiently great.
