%T Synthesis of Amphiphilic Block Copolymers via the Combination of Anionic and RAFT Polymerization and their Structural Characterization
%U 
 
%X The morphology of the products from the synthetic approaches for the synthesis of the PS–b–PI–b–PDMA triblock terpolymers was investigated. In bulk, a microphase-sepa-rated structure was discovered for the products from both synthetic approaches. The prod-uct after the Steglich-esterification of the diblock copolymer with the PDMA homopoly-mer shows a core-shell morphology in a polystyrene matrix, while in the product after the chain extension a core-shell-shell morphology in a PDMA matrix is observed. By tem-perature annealing and subsequent solvent vapor annealing, microphase-separated sur-face structures of spin-coated thin film with different domain sizes could be obtained.
