Structure formation in thin polymer blend films — •J. S. Gutmann, P. M"uller-Buschbaum, and M. Stamm — Max-Planck-Institut f"ur Polymerforschung, Ackermannweg 10, D- 55128 Mainz

The morphology of thin multi component polymer films is the result of a delicate interplay between the preparation conditions, the miscibility of the polymers in the blend and the wettability of the surface by the individual polymers [1]. Polymer blends of polystyrene and para-bromo-polystyrenes with different degrees of bromation were used to investigate structure formation during the spin-coating process. The molecular weights of the used polymers vary from 225k to 380k. The resulting morphologies were examined by optical, phase interference and atomic force microscopy. Specular and off-specular x-ray reflection experiments were conducted to yield an information about structures perpendicular to the surface as well as lateral structures [2]. A variation of blend composition, miscibility and substrates gave rise to distinct differences in the resulting morphologies. Perpendicular to the surface a switch from the polymer-surface interaction to the polymer-polymer interaction as the driving force in structure formation was observed.
