Effect of Selective Surface Interaction on Polymer Phase Separation with Explicit Polydispersity During Polymerization In polymerization-induced phase separation, the impact of polymer-substrate interaction on the dynamics of phase separation for polymer blends is important in determining the final morphology and properties of polymer materials as the surface can act as another driving force for phase separation other than polymerization.

Modeling the competition between phase separation and polymerization under explicit polydispersity The dynamics of phase separation for polymer blends is important in determining the final morphology and properties of polymer materials; in practical applications, this phase separation can be controlled by coupling to polymerization reaction kinetics via a process called 'polymerization-induced phase separation`.
