Abstract
Poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PEO-b-P4VP) block copolymers (BCPs) exhibiting lower disorder-to-order transition (LDOT) phase behavior are doped with different salts (LiCl, CuCl2, and FeCl3), in which both blocks can competitively associate with the metal ions. It is found that the entropy-driven LDOT phase behavior of PEO-b-P4VP can be bi-directionally adjusted by enthalpic interactions, depending on the complexation selectivity...
