Block copolymer self-assembly is a burgeoning subject in polymer and materials science driven by both fundamental and applied inspirations. Whereas the vast majority of block copolymer studies have focused on highly symmetric morphologies, here we report the first observation of an unusual asymmetric cylindrical phase in thick films of an organic/organometallic block copolymer, poly(styrene-block-ferrocenyldimethylsilane) (PS-b-PFS). Microscopy and X-ray scattering data establish the lack of symmetry in this structure and reveal an unusual 3-D network organization. Following selective removal of the PS matrix, the remaining nanoporous film has characteristics of potential value in separation applications such as substantial interconnection (mechanical strength), uniform pore size, and chemical and physical stability. 相似文献

A self-regulated anti-diabetic drug release device mimicking pancreatic cells is highly desirable for the therapy of diabetes. Herein, a glucose-mediated dual-responsive drug delivery system, which combines pH- and H2O2-responsive block copolymer grafted hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) with microneedle (MN) array patch, has been developed to achieve self-regulated administration. The poly[4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)benzyl acrylate]-b-poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PPBEM-b-PDM) polymer serves as gate keeper to prevent drug release from the cavity of HMSNs at normoglycemic level. In contrast, the drug release rate is significantly enhanced upon H2O2 and pH stimuli due to the chemical change of H2O2 sensitive PPBEM block and acid responsive PDM block. Therefore, incorporation of anti-diabetic drug and glucose oxidase (GOx, which can oxidize glucose to gluconic acid and in-situ produce H2O2) into stimulus polymer coated HMSNs results in a glucose-mediated MN device after depositing the drug-loaded nanoparticles into MN array patch. Both in vitro and in vivo results show this MN device presents a glucose mediated self-regulated drug release characteristic, which possesses a rapid drug release at hyperglycemic level but retarded drug release at normoglycemic level. The result indicates that the fabricated smart drug delivery system is a good candidate for the therapy of diabetes. 相似文献

A real-space implementation of the self-consistent field theory (SCFT) has been used to study the morphologies of ABCD 4-miktoarm star block copolymers. For the sake of numerical tractability, the morphologies and the phase diagrams of ABCD 4-miktoarm star block copolymers are investigated in two dimensions (2D) by varying the volume fractions of the blocks and the interaction parameters. Many interesting and complex morphologies occur and compared with ABCD linear block copolymers; ABCD 4-miktoarm star block copolymers have more regular disciplines. We found that systems with similar components have similar morphologies and at the weaker segregation, the minority components always cannot separate from the other blocks and they easily dissolve to form one phase with other block(s), but with the increase of the segregation degree (large ), the ordered phases can be well separated. With the help of our computational prediction, experimental researchers can work more purposefully and efficiently. 相似文献

A simple process of solvent annealing has been shown to produce ordered self-assembly structures of poly(styrene)-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP)/poly(4,4′-oxydiphenylenepyromellitamic acid) (POAA) block copolymer/homopolymer blends in thin film, where POAA chains selectively interact with P4VP blocks by strong interpolymer hydrogen-bonding. By simply exposing the thin film to benzene/NMP (0.97/0.03, in volume) vapor mixture, ordered microphase-separated structures with PS spherical microdomains distributed within P4VP/POAA complexes matrix were obtained. The formation of the microphase-separated structures could be attributed to the substantial mobility of PS blocks and P4VP/POAA complexes and enhanced repulsion between them under the benzene/NMP mixture vapor. When the volume ratio of benzene to NMP increased to 0.98/0.02, the increasing benzene in the mixture vapor induced the adhesive collision of spherical microphase-separated structures to form long “pearl necklaces”. With increasing volume ratio of benzene to NMP to 0.99/0.01, an ordered “pearl necklace” array oriented parallel to the film surface formed. The self-assembly structures were studied by FTIR spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Finally, possible mechanism of self-assembly and formation of microphase morphology was proposed. 相似文献

SrFe0.95Mo0.05O3-δ (SFM5) perovskite hollow fiber (HF) membranes with a finger-like structure were fabricated by a phase inversion technique. The oxygen flux through SFM5 hollow fiber membrane was evaluated and reached 0.64 μmol/cm2 *s at T = 880 °C, which is 5 times higher than that of a disk SFM5 membrane (0.12 μmol/cm2 *s). A further increase in oxygen fluxes was attained by Ag deposition on the inner surface of SFM5 hollow fiber membrane. The oxygen flux of SFM5 HF membranes is governed by surface-exchange reactions on the permeate side. The equilibrium "3 − δ − lg pO2 − T" diagrams showed that doping of SF by molybdenum leads to a broadening of the cubic perovskite phase stability region. 相似文献

As the applications for polymeric membranes expand, new challenges arise. One of the largest of these challenges is the plasticization caused by strongly swelling penetrants such as carbon dioxide at elevated pressures. A considerable amount of material research has investigated crosslinking of dense film membranes to increase plasticization resistance. This paper extends such materials research to include more practically relevant asymmetric hollow fibers. Crosslinkable polyimide fibers were spun and an ester crosslinking reaction was studied using chemical and spectroscopic techniques to characterize the extent of crosslinking and to relate the effect of the reaction on fiber stability. CO2 permeance and CO2/CH4 selectivity were studied at a variety of pressures and temperatures over time to yield indications of real-world separation performance. 相似文献

Blends of styrene-butadiene diblock copolymer (S-B, 52 wt% styrene content) and styrene-butadiene random copolymer (SBR) of various styrene compositions were studied by small-angle X-ray scattering, light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy. The composition of random copolymer plays an important role in the solubilization of SBR in S-B. The order-disorder transition temperature, TODT, decreases linearly with the addition of SBR. TODT decreases as the symmetry in SBR composition increases and shows the highest value in the case of homopolymers. Asymmetric butadiene-rich SBR dissolves mostly into PB microdomain of S-B to increase lamella microdomain spacing, D, and its addition makes the overall microdomains of S and B in the mixture more asymmetrical. Symmetric SBR is localized into the interface of S-B microdomain to reduce unfavorable S-B contact at the interface. The phase diagram for S-B containing asymmetric SBR shows a succession of mixed mesophases of different morphologies from lamellae and cylinder to disordered liquid phases, whereas the phase diagram containing symmetric SBR shows two homogeneous phases and one region of two-phase coexistence, where macroscopically separated phases coexist together. 相似文献

The first oxygen permeation data of a dense hollow fiber perovskite membrane based on BaCoxFeyZrzO3 − δ are reported. The hollow fiber was prepared by a phase inversion process. Dense fibers were obtained with the following typical geometries: outer diameter, 800–900 μm; inner diameter, 500–600 μm; length, 30 cm. The O2-permeation through the hollow fiber perovskite membrane was studied in a high-temperature gas permeation cell under different operation conditions. The increase of the helium gas flow rate reduces the oxygen partial pressure (pO2) on the core side and a higher oxygen permeation flux is observed. High oxygen flux of 0.73 m3 (O2)/(m2 (membrane) h) was achieved at 850 °C under the operation parameters Fair (shell side) = 150 ml/min and FHe (core side) = 30 ml/min. The oxygen partial pressure dependence of the O2 permeation flux indicated an interplay of both surface reaction and bulk diffusion as rate limiting steps. During 5 days of permeation a high and stable oxygen flux was observed. X-ray diffraction patterns of fresh and spent membranes after the permeation measurements revealed that no degradation after oxygen permeation appears. 相似文献

The self-assembly of block copolymers (BCPs) in the presence of crystallization as the second driving force is reviewed, for BCPs in the bulk, thin films, single crystals and micelles. The crystallization of semicrystalline BCPs in the bulk is introduced briefly and the unique morphologies of semicrystalline BCPs at various levels due to crystallization are discussed. The thin film morphologies shown by crystalline BCPs are summarized in terms of the factors affecting the relative strengths of various driving forces. Special attention is paid to the thin film morphologies of functional BCPs containing crystalline poly(3-alkylthiophene) and perylene bisimide units. The single crystal morphologies of semicrystalline BCPs are also presented. Finally, the micellar morphologies of BCPs with a semicrystalline core are reviewed. The controlled and living growth of crystalline micelles, which is the unique characteristic of such micelle, is then discussed. 相似文献

In this study, we investigated the miscibility, phase behavior, and self-assembled nanostructures formed from the immiscible crystalline-amorphous diblock copolymer poly(?-caprolactone-b-4-vinyl pyridine) (PCL-b-P4VP, A-B) when blended with the homopolymer poly(vinyl phenol) (PVPh, C) and the diblock copolymer poly(vinyl phenol-b-styrene) (PVPh-b-PS, C-D). Long-range-ordered microphase separation was difficult to achieve in the PCL-b-P4VP/PVPh (A-B/C) blend system because PVPh interacted with both the P4VP and PCL blocks simultaneously through hydrogen bonding interactions. In contrast, we observed sharp, multiple orders of diffraction in the SAXS profiles of the PCL-b-P4VP/PVPh-b-PS (A-B/C-D) blend system, indicating that perfect microphase separation occurred because the incorporation of the PS block induced the PVPh block to hydrogen bond preferentially with the P4VP block. This simple A-B/C-D (PCL-b-P4VP/PVPh-b-PS) diblock copolymer mixture exhibited self-assembly behavior (a three-lamella phase) similar to that of a corresponding ABC triblock copolymer. 相似文献

Spherical micelles of a series of poly(styrene-block-(2,5-bis[4-methoxyphenyl]oxycarbonyl)styrene) (PS-b-PMPCS) rod-coil diblock copolymers in a selective solvent can organize into large mono-layered films with a well-ordered hexagonal packing of the spheres after solvent evaporation. Organized domains in the spherical micelle film were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The core-shell structure of the spherical micelle remained after solvent evaporation. The micelle diameter in the ordered film as observed by TEM and AFM agree. The size of the spherical micelles can be controlled by the length of PMPCS when the length of the PS is fixed. The sphere diameters were varied from several tens of nanometers to more than one hundred nanometers. Solutions of smaller micelle spheres formed less ordered films than those from larger micelle particles. Additionally, monolayer films of cylindrical worm-like micelles were also prepared. Those cylindrical micelles were observed to be end-capped by spherical micelles. The monolayer micelle film from the largest spherical micelles appeared red when observed in optical microscopy in the reflection mode. A broad adsorption peak with a maximum adsorption wavelength of 545 nm was observed via UV-Vis spectroscopy. 相似文献

Crystallization of two oxyethylene/oxybutylene block copolymers (E76B38 and E155B76) from micelles in block copolymer/amorphous homopolymer blends was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and time-resolved small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Unlike the simultaneous crystallization and formation of superstructure in crystallization from an ordered structure, crystallization of block copolymer from micelles can be divided into two steps. The core of the micelles firstly crystallizes individually, with first-order crystallization kinetics and homogeneous nucleation mechanism. The SAXS revealed that crystallization-induced deformation occurs for the micelles, which strongly depends on microstructure of the block copolymers. For the shorter block copolymer E76B38, larger deformation induced by crystallization was observed, leading to coalescence of the micelles after crystallization, while for the longer block copolymer E155B76 the micelles show little deformation and the morphology of micelle is retained after crystallization. 相似文献

Block copolymers (BCPs) have received great attention for the past 40 years but only within the past decade have they been seriously considered for nanotechnological applications. Their applicability to nanotechnology stems from the scale of the microdomains and the convenient tunability of size, shape, and periodicity afforded by changing their molecular parameters. The use of the tensorial physical properties of BCPs in such areas as transport, mechanical, electrical, and optical properties will provide substantial benefits in the future. In this review article, we first focus on the current efforts to utilize BCPs in nanotechnologies including nanostructured membranes, BCP templates for nanoparticle synthesis, photonic crystals, and high-density information storage media. In order to realize these applications, control over microdomain spatial and orientational order is paramount. This article reviews various methods to control BCP microdomain structures in the bulk state as well as in thin films. A variety of biases such as mechanical flow fields, electric fields, temperature gradients, and surface interactions can manipulate the microstructures of BCPs. A particular emphasis is made on two approaches, epitaxy and graphoepitaxy, and their combinations. Manipulation of BCP microdomain structures employing multiple external fields promises realization of many potential nanotechnological applications. 相似文献

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hydrophobic asymmetric hollow fiber membrane was fabricated through the dry-jet wet phase inversion process. It is found that the PVDF hollow fiber has an ultra-thin skin layer and a porous support layer from the morphology study. The fully porous membrane structure has the advantage of decreasing the vapor transport resistance and enhancing the permeation flux. The fabricated PVDF membrane has a mean pore size of in diameter and a narrow pore size distribution. The rough external surface produces an advancing contact angle of 112±3° with water. During direct contact membrane distillation (MD) of 3.5 wt% salt solution, PVDF hollow fibers produced a water permeation flux of (based on the external diameter of hollow fiber) and a NaCl rejection of 99.99% with a hot salt solution at 79.3 °C and cold distillate water at 17.5 °C. This performance is comparable to or superior to most of commercially available PVDF hollow fiber membranes, indicating that the newly developed PVDF may be suitable for MD applications. 相似文献

Fouling resistance of ultrafiltration (UF) membranes is critical for their long-term usages in terms of stable performance, so convenient approaches to prepare fouling-resistant membranes are always anticipated. Herein, we demonstrate the facile fabrication of antifouling polysulfone-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (PSF-b-PEG, SFEG) composite membranes. SFEG layer was coated onto macroporous supports and cavitated by immerging them in acetone/n-propanol following the mechanism of selective swelling induced pore generation. Thus-produced SFEG membranes possessed high permeance and excellent mechanical strength. Meanwhile, the structures and separation performances of the SFEG layers can be continuously tuned through simply changing swelling durations. More importantly, the hydrophilic PEG chains were spontaneously enriched onto the pore walls through swelling treatment, endowing intrinsic antifouling property to the SFEG membranes. Bovine serum albumin (BSA)/humic acid (HA) fouling tests proved the prominent fouling resistance of SFEG membranes, and the fouling resistance is expected to be long-standing because of the firm connection between PEG chains and PSF matrix by covalent bonding. 相似文献

A mass transfer model in consideration of multi-layer resistances through NaA zeolite membrane and lumen pressure drop in the permeate sidewas developed to describe pervaporation dehydration through scaled-up hollowfiber supported NaA zeolitemembrane. Itwas found that the transfer resistance in the lumen of the permeate side is strongly related with geometric size of hollow fiber zeolite membrane,which could not be neglected. The effect of geometric size on pervaporation dehydration could bemore significant under higher vacuumpressure in the permeate side. The transfer resistance in the lumen increaseswith the hollowfiber length but decreaseswith lumen diameter. The geometric structure could be optimized in terms of the ratio of lumen diameter to membrane length. A critical value of dI/L (Rc) to achieve high permeation flux was empirically correlated with extraction pressure in the permeate side. Typically, for a hollow fiber supported NaA zeolite membrane with length of 0.40 m, the lumen diameter should be larger than 2.0 mm under the extraction pressure of 1500 Pa. 相似文献

PET threads were incorporated in the support layer of hollow fiber membrane in axial direction as a special reinforcement material for the purpose of improving the mechanical properties of PVDF hollow fiber membranes. It was found that the reinforcement threads had a limited effect on the separation-related properties of the membrane, such as porosity and pore size, but the tensile strength of the reinforced membrane was improved several folds. Also, the criterion of choosing reinforced fiber materials was suggested. 相似文献

A series of miscible crystalline-amorphous diblock copolymers, (poly(?-caprolactone)-b-(vinyl phenol), PCL-b-PVPh) were prepared through sequential ring-opening and controlled living free radical (nitroxide-mediated) polymerizations and then blended with poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) homopolymer. Specific interactions, miscibility, and self-assembly morphologies mediated by hydrogen bonding interactions of this new A-B/C type blend, were investigated in detail. Micro-phase separation of these miscible PCL-b-PVPh diblock copolymers occurs by blending with PVP through competitive hydrogen bonding interaction in this A-B/C blend. FTIR, XRD, and DSC analyses provide positive evidences that the carbonyl group of PVP is a significantly stronger hydrogen bond acceptor than PCL, thus the PCL block is excluded from the PVPh/PVP miscible phase to form self-assembly structure. 13C CP/MAS solid-state NMR spectra provide additional evidence confirming that micro-phase separation occurs in the blend system because of the presence of more than two T1ρ(H) values for this A-B/C blend system. According to the result of the FTIR and SAXS results, the smaller molecular weight system contains a greater fraction of the hydrogen-bonded carbonyl group, cause indirectly the high degree of phase separation among these blends. In addition, the SAXS profiles possess a sharp primary peak and highly long range ordered reflections q/q∗ ratios of 1:2:3 at lower PVP content, an indication of the lamellar structure in the blend which is consistent with TEM image. The phase behavior and morphology shifts from lamellar to cylinder structure with further increase in the PVP content. 相似文献

We investigate the influence of an asymmetric PS-b-PMMA block copolymer (bcp) on the morphology of melt-mixed immiscible binary polymer blends containing poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) random copolymer (SAN) and poly(cyclohexylmethacrylate) (PCHMA). By varying the SAN copolymer composition, the balance between the swelling of each block segment located at the interface between the two phases is altered and the effect on blend morphology is studied. As in earlier studies using a symmetric bcp, we find that for a specified shear history, there is a zone of effective emulsification of the blend bounded by regions of internal and external emulsification failure. However, the locations of the boundaries between stable and unstable emulsification differ for an asymmetric versus a symmetric bcp. Thus the morphology depends not only on the segmental swelling ratio but also on the difference in the effective size of each bcp segment. Scaling arguments successfully correlate the limits of stable emulsification for both symmetric and asymmetric bcp. 相似文献

Polymeric micelles based on poly(γ-benzyl-l-glutamate)-poly(ethylene glycol) graft copolymer (PBLG-g-PEG) with various degrees of grafting and the mixtures composed of PBLG-g-PEG and poly(γ-benzyl-l-glutamate)-poly(ethylene glycol) block copolymer (PBLG-b-PEG) were prepared by the dialysis method in deionized water. Fluorescence spectroscopy and transmission electron microscope (TEM) have been used to study the self-assembly behavior. The experimental results revealed that the degree of grafting exerts marked effect on the critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the morphology of the micelle formed by PBLG-g-PEG. With increasing the degree of grafting, the CMC value becomes larger and the morphology of formed micelle changes from irregular shape to spindle. It was also found that mixtures of PBLG-g-PEG/PBLG-b-PEG can associate into hybrid polymeric micelle with various shapes. 相似文献
