Theory of the Interface between Immiscible Polymers. II

Helfand, Eugene, Tagami, Yukiko·1972·The Journal of Chemical Physics

Abstract

A theory is developed to predict the interfacial properties between two immiscible polymers. A self-consistent-field approach is employed to describe the configurational statistics of polymer molecules in the interfacial region. The density profiles and surface tension are calculated, and compare well with experiments. The interfaces are found to be much broader than for ordinary liquids. Also discussed are the distribution of chain ends and block-copolymer joints in the interface, and the effects of adding moderate amounts of solvent.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
