- W4283271675 abstract "Ethylene/1-octene statistical multiblock copolymers (OMBCs) consisting of the alternation of crystalline, hard blocks and amorphous, soft blocks, with ≈0.5 and 20 mol % of 1-octene units, respectively, are subjected to thermal fractionation resorting to successive self-nucleation and annealing (SSA). The study is extended to random copolymers (RCs) of high (44 kDa) and low (3.4 kDa) number average molecular mass Mn, mimicking in 1-octene content the crystalline hard blocks and to the OMBC fractions extracted in boiling n-hexane and cyclohexane through a suitable solution fractionation protocol. For all the samples, the melting endotherms are well resolved in a multiplicity of peaks corresponding to the melting of crystals of different thicknesses generated in the SSA protocol that reflect the distribution of the methylene sequence length (MSL) in between consecutive interruptions along the chains. It is shown that, regardless of molecular mass, the MSL distributions of the RC samples are shifted toward greater values than those of the OMBC samples, and that also the shapes of the distributions are different. Since the MSL distribution depends on the frequency and distribution of the defects along the chains, and the defects act as interruption points, the higher fraction of long crystallizable sequences in the RC samples suggests that whereas for the RC samples the interruptions are merely represented by the 1-octene units that are rejected outside the crystals, for the OMBCs, the interruption of the regular methylene sequences belonging to the crystalline hard blocks due to the amorphous soft blocks linked to them should also play a role. Indeed, due to the partial miscibility of the hard and soft blocks, the hard blocks of major length tend to crystallize in a confined environment. This prevents the formation of thicker crystals and induces decrease of the MSL values as well as changes in the shape of the MSL distributions (topological confinement). On the other hand, the hard blocks of shorter length tend to crystallize, crossing the hard block rich regions and causing melting point depression and consequent shift of the MSLs toward lower values with respect to RCs (diluent effect). It is shown that differences in the MSL distribution of OMBCs are the result of the interplay between topological confinement and diluent effect, which in turn reflects differences in the OMBC chain microstructure, that is, differences in the distribution of block length at the inter- and intra-chain level." @default.
