Article Synopsis
- The study examines the micellization and gelation behavior of a 50/50 mixture of triblock copolymers (E45B14E45 and E62P39E62) in dilute aqueous solutions across various temperatures.
- Light scattering measurements indicate that the two copolymers micellize separately within the mixture, leading to the formation of a hard gel when micellization is extensive for both.
- The minimum concentration needed for hard-gel formation is higher in the mixture compared to individual copolymers due to the presence of micelles with different average sizes.
