Numerical simulation of phase separation of immiscible polymer blends on a heterogeneously functionalized substrate
Abstract
The spinodal phase decomposition of an immiscible binary polymer blend system is investigated with numerical models in two-dimensional and three-dimensional (3D). The effect of the elastic energy is included. The mechanism of the evolution of the phase separation is studied and the characteristic length R(t) is shown to be proportional to t(13). In the case when the phase separation is directed by a heterogeneously functionalized substrate, the increase in the characteristic length is divided into two stages by a critical time. The R(t) approximately t(13) diagram can be fitted with a straight line in both the first and second stages. The slope of the fitting line significantly decreases after the critical time. The compatibility of the resulting pattern to the substrate pattern is also measured by a factor C(S). It is observed that there is also a critical time in the evolution of the compatibility for the cases with and without elastic energy. The critical time of C(S) is identical with the respective critical time of R(t). The lateral and vertical composition profiles functionalized substrate is observed with the 3D model. The difference mechanism of the cases with and without elastic energy is discussed.
