Figure 6.4. Schematic phase diagram for a three-component (oil, water, surfactant) system showing some of the self-assembled structures which form in the various regions.

Fig. 4 Free energy diagram for the two possible situations in enzyme-triggered formation of supramolecular assembly. Left. The enzyme-catalysed reaction and self-assembly process are both favoured independently and therefore uncoupled. Right. Enzyme-triggered self-assembly under thermodynamic control formation of the building blocks is thermodynamically unfavoured in isolation and occurs in reversible fashion when coupled to a sufficiently stable self-assembled structure formation...

Fig. 1 Phase diagram of self-assembled structures in AB diblock copolymer melt, predicted by self-consistent mean field theory [31] and confirmed experimentally [33]. The MesoDyn simulations [34, 35] demonstrate morphologies that are predicted theoretically and observed experimentally in thin films of cylinder-forming block copolymers under surface fields or thickness constraints dis disordered phase with no distinct morphology, C perpendicular-oriented and Cy parallel-oriented cylinders, L lamella, PS polystyrene, PL hexagonally perforated lamella phase. Dots with related labels within the areal of the cylinder phase indicate the bulk parameters of the model AB and ABA block copolymers discussed in this work (Table 1).

Comparable to the binary systems (water-surfactant or oil-surfactant), self-assembled structures of different morphologies can be obtained ranging from (inverted) spherical and cylindrical micelles to lamellar phases and bicontin-uous structures. To map out these regions, a phase diagram is most useful. 

P. J. Ilutta to all possible low-symmetry local structures that may occur in zeolite sites [7J. Specific reported examples are the d -> d term diagrams applied to observed optical spectra of transition-ion complexes with olefins, dioxygen, mono-oxygen, and a number of other intrazeolite sorption assemblies. Predictive diagrams have been calculated for the specific locations of the Mn(ll) ions in zeolites, which have been analyzed for magnetic properties [8] and structure [9],... 

The phase behavior of diglycerol fatty acid esters (C G2, m = 12, 14, and 16) in liquid paraffin oil, squalane, and squalene is discussed. This section compares the nonaqueous phase behavior of mono- and diglycerol-based nonionic surfactants in different oils. Phase diagrams of surfactant/oil binary systems for the C ,G2 (m = 12-16) surfactants in a wide range of temperature and concentration at atmospheric pressure are shown in Figure 2.2. Gontrary to the G G) surfactants, the G ,G2 surfactants form a variety of self-assembled structures in nonpolar oils liquid paraffin oil, squalane, and squalene.

In the following section, the phase diagram is assumed to be the simplest case according to Winsor, and the eventual changes in structure are scrutinized as composition and other variables change. The actual self-assembly structure depends on different effects that come from a variety of phenomena. 

This chapter will focus on linear polymer structures composed of synthetic polypeptide or polypeptide-polymer systems formed in bulk. Our aim is to present an overview of bulk self-assembled structures from polypeptide-based conjugates, specifically diblock and triblock architectures. Recent advances in theoretical developments and the first phase diagrams of such kind of polypeptide rod-coil systems will be also presented. 

The phase diagram in Fig. 56 reveals an irreversible temperature-induced OOT between C and G, with the former being the low-temperature phase, which differs from previous studies on PS-fr-PI/PS or PI blends [10]. The irreversibility of the OOT was attributed to a kinetic effect. At temperatures between ODT and OOT the system assembles in a G morphology. This structure is kinetically trapped and persists at temperatures below OOT, where cylinders are expected to be formed.

The ability of block copolymers to self-assemble into organized microdomain (MD) structures when the thermodynamic repulsion between the constituents is high enough seems to be fairly well understood. This is particularly true in the case of amorphous diblock copolymers where phase diagrams for particular systems have been successfully predicted and experimentally proven [1-5].
