Abstract
The self-assembly of block copolymers in solution leads to micellar structures with various morphologies. One way to modify the morphology of these micelles is to blend the block copolymer with a homopolymer corresponding to the core-forming block. Although the self-assembly of blends of amorphous homopolymers and block polymers has been extensively studied, there are few examples of solution self-assembly of blends of a core-crystalline block copolymer with a semicrystalline homopolymer. Here we describe a systematic study of the assembly in decane of blends of a polyferrocenylsilane- block -polyisoprene sample (PFS 48 - b -PI 264 ) with two different PFS homopolymer samples (PFS 50 and PFS 20 ). We examine the structures formed as a function of blend composition and compare them to the structures formed from the individual components. PFS 48 - b -PI 264 itself forms long cylindrical micelles, while the two homopolymer samples form stacks of lamellar crystals. Self-assembly of block copolymer mixtures leads to structures with an elongated planar core and fiber-like protrusions from the ends. The details of the structure vary in an interesting and systematic way as the ratio of homopolymer/block copolymer is increased, with important differences seen for the PFS50 and PFS20 homopolymer samples. This study demonstrates that cocrystallization plays a crucial role in determining the structures formed from these mixtures.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
