Abstract

An ultra narrow line structure was prepared in the lamellar morphology of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)-containing triblock terpolymer in the bulk via the self-assembly. The triblock terpolymers, which comprised polystyrene, POSS-containing poly(methacrylate) (PMAPOSS) and poly(methyl methacrylate), were synthesized by anionic polymerization. The self-assembled structures were studied by using a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and a small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). It was found that a narrow PMAPOSS domain was layered in triple-domain lamellar, which caused by the effect of strongly segregation with the middle PMAPOSS block. The total d-spacing was 32 nm, and the smallest width of PMAPOSS domain layer was ca. 4 nm.
