## Abstract Different polymers containing sulfonic groups attached to the phenyl rings were prepared by sulfonation of polystyrene (PS) and styrene‐__block__‐(ethylene‐__co__‐1‐butene)‐__block__‐styrene (SEBS). The sulfonation degree (SD) was varied between 1 and 20 mol% of the styrene units. Poly

✦ Synopsis
The phase behaviours in binary blends of styrene-isoprene diblock copolymer and poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) were investigated by using small-angle X-ray and light scattering techniques. It was observed that the added homopolymer molecules were dissolved into the microdomains of the styrene blocks of the copolymer. The blends exhibited a lower critical solution temperature as seen in the blends of PVME with polystyrene. The experimental results were compared with that of the modified Meier's theory in a semiquantitative way.
