The dependence of log(cmc) on hydrophobic block length n was examined for E(m)B(n) copolymers (E=oxyethylene, B=oxybutylene, subscripts denote number-average block lengths in repeat units) with n in the range 30-76. Combination with published data for E(m)B(n) diblock copolymers with shorter E-blocks shows two changes of slope in the log(cmc)-n plot corresponding to the onset of unimolecular micelle formation at n approximately 12 and completion of this process at n approximately 30. The results are discussed with reference to published data for E(m)L(n) and E(m)CL(n) (L from d,L-lactide; CL from epsilon-caprolactone) copolymers, which show similar behaviour.
对于E(m)B(n)共聚物(E = 氧化乙烯,B = 氧化丁烯,下标表示重复单元中的数均嵌段长度),研究了log(cmc)对疏水嵌段长度n的依赖性,其中n的范围为30至76。与已发表的具有较短E嵌段的E(m)B(n)二嵌段共聚物的数据相结合,在log(cmc)-n图中显示出斜率的两个变化,分别对应于n约为12时单分子胶束形成的开始以及n约为30时该过程的完成。参考已发表的E(m)L(n)和E(m)CL(n)(L来自d,L-丙交酯;CL来自ε-己内酯)共聚物的数据对结果进行了讨论,这些共聚物表现出类似的行为。
