## Abstract Block copolymer nanopaticles were prepared from the mixture solutions containing good/poor solvents by a simple evaporation process. The block copolymers formed disorder, unidirectionally stacked lamellar, and onionβlike structures in nanoparticles depending on preparation temperatures.
A method is described to prepare poly(isoprene-b-(isoprene-co-styrene+-b-styrene) three-block copolymers in which the interphase thickness is varied by the molecular weight of a random copolymer center block. The interphase width was determined by electron microscopy, small angle X-ray scattering an
## Abstract The morphology of a Hβshaped block copolymer (poly(ethylene glycol) backbone and polystyrene branches (PS)~2~PEG(PS)~2~) in a thin film has been investigated. A peculiar square lamella that has a phaseβseparated microdomain at its surface is obtained after spin coating. The experimental
