Emergence of Hexagonally Close-Packed Spheres in Linear Block Copolymer Melts

The hexagonally close-packed (HCP) sphere phase is predicted to be stable across a narrow region of linear block copolymer phase space, but the small free energy difference separating it from face-centered cubic spheres usually results in phase coexistence. Here, we report the discovery of pure HCP spheres in linear block copolymer melts with A = poly(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acrylate) (“F”) and B = poly(2-dodecyl acrylate) (“2D”) or poly(4-dodecyl acrylate) (“4D”). In 4DF diblocks and F4DF triblocks, the HCP phase emerges across a substantial range of A-block volume fractions (circafA= 0.25-0.30), and in F4DF, it forms reversibly when subjected to various processing conditions which suggests an equilibrium state. The time scale associated with forming pure HCP upon quenching from a disordered liquid is intermediate to the ordering kinetics of the Frank-Kasper σ and A15 phases. However, unlike σ and A15, HCP nucleates directly from a supercooled liquid or soft solid without proceeding through an intermediate quasicrystal. Self-consistent field theory calculations indicate the stability of HCP is intimately tied to small amounts of molar mass dispersity (?); for example, an HCP-forming F4DF sample withfA= 0.27 has an experimentally measured?= 1.04. These insights challenge the conventional wisdom that pure HCP is difficult to access in linear block copolymer melts without the use of blending or other complex processing techniques.

METHOD FOR PREPARING (METH)ACRYLATES OF BIOBASED ALCOHOLS AND POLYMERS THEREOF

Polymers, particularly those used in pressure-sensitive adhesives, are prepared from a mixture of structural isomers of a secondary alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer. The mixture is made by dehydrating a C2-C22 alcohol using a continuous process to form a mixture of olefins, and reacting (meth)acrylic acid with at least some of the mixture of olefins in the presence of an acid catalyst. The adhesives are characterized by exhibiting an overall balance of adhesive and cohesive characteristics.
