Core–Shell Gyroid in ABC Bottlebrush Block Terpolymers

Abstract: Block polymer self-assembly provides a versatile platform for creating useful materials endowed with three-dimensional periodic network morphologies that support orthogonal physical properties such as high ionic conductivity and a high elastic modulus. However, coil configurations limit conventional linear block polymers to finite ordered network dimensions, which are further restricted by slow self-assembly kinetics at high molecular weights. A bottlebrush architecture can circumvent both shortcomings owing t… Show more

“…SEO BBCPs were synthesized using ring-opening metathesis polymerization of the corresponding macromonomers as described in the Supporting Information. Synthesis and characterization of S and EO macromonomers (1240 and 1090 g/mol, respectively) are described in a previous publication . The polymers were characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR) spectroscopy and size exclusion chromatography (SEC), and their molecular weights, dispersities, and volume fraction are summarized in Table .…”

“…Bottlebrush polymers possess a unique architecture with dense and brush-like side chains, and their backbones are forced to take an extended conformation due to the repulsion effect. Thus, the formation of entanglements is significantly suppressed in the dry networks of bottlebrush polymers, making the bottlebrush polymer an ideal candidate for the fabrication of super-soft elastomers free of solvents. Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) has been a powerful tool to produce well-defined bottlebrush polymers via the “grafting-through” synthesis of norbornenyl-terminated macromonomers. Some prior works have reported the fabrication of super-soft solvent-free elastomers by cross-linking the side chains of the ROMP-derived polymers. , However, elastomers based on bottlebrush polymers are usually cross-linked via nondynamic covalent bonds, and these materials cannot repair themselves, thereby significantly shortening their service life and reducing their reliability. , Moreover, nearly all of the existing super-soft elastomers from bottlebrush polymers consist of nondegradable materials, which is not helpful to build a sustainable society. Therefore, biodegradable elastomers integrated with super-softness and self-healing properties are highly desirable to meet the combination of different requirements. , …”

“…One class of chain architectures that has recently emerged and attracted special research interest in experiments is the bottlebrush-like polymer. ,,,,, The bottlebrush copolymer (BBCP) is composed of two or more types of chemically distinct blocks that are grafted to a backbone. The conformations of the backbone can be influenced by the solvent quality as well as grafting density . Usually, the backbone is densely grafted by side chains and tends to adopt extended conformations as a result of the strong excluded-volume effect between side chains, that is, effectively exhibiting a certain degree of rigidity.…”
