摘要
Mesoscopically ordered self-assembled polystyrene, polycarbonate and poly(methyl methacrylate) films were obtained when polymer solutions were deposited on vertical plates and dried with hot air. It was shown that characteristic size (approximate to 50 mum) of the mesoscopic cell is practically insensitive to the polymer or substrate kind, while the thickness of the substrate plays a decisive role in the mesoscopic patterning. Junction angles of 120 and 90degrees were observed. Marangoni instability plays an important role in the cell's structure formation. A semi-quantitative model explaining the phenomenon of mesoscopic cell formation is proposed.
