Calorimetric investigations of thin films of micelles formed by triblockcopolymers — •Heiko Huth1, Julia Gensel2, Andreas Fery2, and Christoph Schick1 — 1Universität Rostock, Institut für Physik, Wismarsche Straße 43-45, 18051 Rostock, Germany — 2Universität Bayreuth Physikalische Chemie II, Universitätsstraße 30, 95440 Bayreuth, Germany
In the recent years investigations in the nano sized range is in the focus of many researchers. For basic understanding as well as for practical applications the behavior of thin films and other confinements in small dimensions is of interest.
As one example for applications there is the idea of structured thin films due to self assembly i.e. of complex substructures as micelles. While for structural investigations several methods for thin films are present it is difficult to find methods to observe dynamic properties. AC-chip calorimetry has demonstrated the ability to measure thin polymeric films [1] and is now used as a very sensitive tool for calorimetric investigations of thin films formed by micelles.
