Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates how the strength and distribution of pendant hydrogen bonds affect the self-assembly and properties of A-AB-A triblock copolymers.
  • Using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization, researchers created a variety of these copolymers, incorporating cytosine-based units to study their thermomechanical behavior.
  • Results indicated that variations in hydrogen bonding significantly influence microphase separation and mechanical properties, with stronger associations in the UCyA version leading to improved material performance compared to CyA.
