✦ Synopsis
Block copolymers composed of poly(dimethylsi1oxane) segments linked to polypeptide have been synthesized by reacting primary mine-terminated silicone with N-carboxy anhydrides of amino acids. The mine-terminated silicone was prepared by reacting "living" polysilanolate with y-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The block copolymers prepared consisted of segments of PO~Y(DLphenylalanine) or poly(y-benzyl-L-glutamate). The block copolymers were purified by extraction with solvents which are selective for the homopolymers. Analysis of the products was accomplished by hydrolysis of the polypeptide segments, infrared spectra, gel permeation chromatography, and elemental analysis. The content of the copolymers ranged from 50 to 87% polypeptide.

Block copolymer containing segments of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and ketonic resins were synthesized. Dihydroxy-terminated PDMS were reacted with the isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) to obtain the diisocyanate-terminated PDMSs (urethane). These urethanes were reacted with reactive hydroxyl groups
Block copolymers of polysulfone-poly(alky1ene oxide)-poly(dimethylsi1oxane) have been prepared by the addition of preformed a,w-bis(hydrogensily1) poly(dimethylsi1oxane) oligomers to allyl end-capped poly(alky1ene oxide)-polysulfone. The hydrosilylation reaction, catalyzed by platinum, was employed
## Abstract This paper describes an unusual contrast inversion phenomenon in TEM imaging of PFS‐__b__‐PDMS block copolymer bulk samples. It is clearly observed especially in samples that show a lamellar morphology that the contrast inversion is accompanied by a contraction of the PDMS domains and a
