Phase transitions and microphases in elastomers. I. Emergence of stable domains
Manu Mannattil, Haim Diamant, David Andelman
The paper explains how microphase separation in swollen elastomers arises from a mismatch between elastic and thermodynamic length scales, using conventional elasticity theory with…

Theory of Microphase Separation in Elastomers
Manu Mannattil, Haim Diamant, David Andelman
Inspired by recent experiments, we present a phase-field model of microphase separation in an elastomer swollen with a solvent. The imbalance between the molecular scale of demixin…
