Effect of the Interplay between Polymer–Filler and Filler–Filler Interactions on the Conductivity of a Filled Diblock Copolymer System
A. I. Chervanyov
Abstract:We investigate the relative roles of the involved interactions and micro-phase morphology in the formation of the conductive filler network in an insulating diblock copolymer (DBC) system. By incorporating the filler immersion energy obtained by means of the phase-field model of the DBC into the Monte Carlo simulation of the filler system, we determined the equilibrium distribution of fillers in the DBC that assumes the lamellar or cylindrical (hexagonal) morphology. Furthermore, we used the resistor network m… Show more
