Orientations of the lamellar phase of block copolymer melts under oscillatory shear flow
A. N. Morozov, J. G. E. M. Fraaije
We develop a theory to describe the reorientation phenomena in the lamellar phase of block copolymer melt under reciprocating shear flow. We show that similar to the steady-shear,…
Influence of confinement on the orientational phase transitions in the lamellar phase of a block copolymer melt under shear flow
A. N. Morozov, A. V. Zvelindovsky, J. G. E. M. Fraaije
In this work we incorporate some real-system effects into the theory of orientational phase transitions under shear flow (M. E. Cates and S. T. Milner, Phys. Rev. Lett. v.62, p.185…
Phase behaviour of block copolymer melts with arbitrary architecture
A. N. Morozov, J. G. E. M. Fraaije
The Leibler theory [L. Leibler, Macromolecules, v.13, 1602 (1980)] for microphase separation in AB block copolymer melts is generalized for systems with arbitrary topology of molec…
Orientational phase transitions in the hexagonal phase of a diblock copolymer melt under shear flow
A. N. Morozov, A. V. Zvelindovsky, J. G. E. M. Fraaije
We generalize the earlier theory by Fredrickson [J. Rheol. v.38, 1045 (1994)] to study the orientational behaviour of the hexagonal phase of diblock copolymer melt subjected to ste…
