Micellization of linear A-b-(B-alt-C)n multiblock terpolymers in A-selective solvents

We used three-dimensional self-consistent field theory to investigate the micellization behavior of A-b-(B-alt-C)n multiblock terpolymers in the presence of a solvent that is selective to the terminal A-block. In particular, we focused on the effects of the incompatibility parameter between B and C, χBC, and the composition of the solvophilic A-block, fA, on the formation of micelles from ABC triblock and A(BC)3 multiblock terpolymers, …
