Abstract
Homopolymer distribution in block copolymer/homopolymer blends was investigated as a function of homopolymer concentration and homopolymer molecular weight. The deuterated poly(methyl methacrylate) or polystyrene was blended with a deuterated polystyrene-poly(methyl methacrylate) diblock copolymer up to a concentration of 20 wt%. Samples were characterized by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), neutron reflectivity and transmission electron microscopy. The block copolymer with a thin-film geometry formed alternating lamellar microdomains oriented parallel to the substrate surface. By adding the homopolymer, the microdomain structure was significantly disturbed. As a consequence, a poorly ordered morphology appeared when the homopolymer concentration exceeded 15 wt%. Increasing the homopolymer concentration and/or the homopolymer molecular weight caused the microdomains to swell less uniformly, resulting in segregation of the homopolymer toward the middle of the microdomains.

블록 공중합체/단일중합체 블렌드에서 단일중합체의 농도와 분자량 변화에 따른 단일중합체의 분포 경향을 알아보았다. 중수소화 폴리(메틸 메타크릴레이트) 또는 폴리스티렌을 중수소화 폴리스티렌-폴리(메틸 메타크릴레이트) 이 중 블록 공중합체에 20 wt%까지 혼입하였다. 시료들은 소각 X-선 산란, 중성자 반사율 및 투과 전자 현미경으로 조사하였다. 실리콘 웨이퍼에 스핀 코팅하여 얇은 필름 상으로 제조한 블록 공중합체는 기질 표면에 대해 평행하게 배향된 라멜라 모폴로지를 형성하였다. 블록 공중합체의 미세 도메인 구조는 단일중합체의 부가에 의해 상당히 교란되었다. 그 결과로 단일중합체의 농도가 15 wt% 이상인 경우에는 배열 질서도가 낮은 라멜라 모폴로지가 나타났다. 단일공중합체의 농도나 분자량이 증가하면 단일중합체가 미세 도메인을 불균일하게 팽윤시키면서 보다 많은 단일중합체가 미세 도메인의 중앙 부위로 이동하였다.
