Abstract

Five block copolymers with three linear architectures were prepared by sequential anionic copolymerization, i.e., E102P37, E103P34, E52P34E52, E57P46E57, and P19E113P19 (where E denotes oxyethylene and P denotes oxypropylene), and the properties of their aqueous solutions were studied across a wide range of concentration. The techniques used to study micellization and micellar properties in dilute solution were static and dynamic light scattering, surface tension, and elution gel-permeation chromatography. The results showed, for example, that critical micelle temperatures for solutions of given composition fell in the order EmPn
