Abstract
What is the distinction between the patterns made by quenched block copolymer melts and quenched cross-linked polymer blends? If we observe thin films under the condition without flow, it is unlikely that we can distinguish them in critical quench experiments. However, off-critical quenches and moving boundary conditions could exhibit a marked distinction. Such a conclusion is reached with a simple mathematical model of cross-linked polymer blends.
