Self-organized structures, tailoring

In the series of PEOm-6-PMA(Az)n copolymers, PEO self-organized entities in the form of highly ordered periodic hexagonal-packed PEO cylinders are formed in the PMA domain by annealing at the isotropic state. This shows that controlling the phase changes at the interface allows tailoring of the nanoscale structures, as illustrated in Fig. 19.
