Critical Behavior of Binary Liquid Mixtures of Deuterated and Protonated Polymers

Bates, F. S., Wignall, G. D., Koehler, W. C.·1985·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

Binary mixtures of protonated and perdeuterated 1,4-polybutadiene have been examined by small-angle neutron scattering and are shown to exhibit an upper critical solution temperature. The scattering results above the critical temperature are described by the mean-field theory of de Gennes for homogeneous binary polymer mixtures. These results contradict the universally held assumption that mixtures of deuterated and protonated polymers of otherwise identical chemical structure form ideal solutions.

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.
