Macromolecular block copolymers

Abstract

A process of forming a macromolecular block copolymer includes forming a first high molecular weight polymer of a first length. The first high molecular weight polymer includes a first set of side-chain functional groups and has a first characteristic rigidity value along the first length. The process also includes forming a second high molecular weight polymer of a second length. The second high molecular weight polymer includes a second set of side-chain functional groups and has a second characteristic rigidity value along the second length that is less than the first characteristic rigidity value. The process further includes bonding the second high molecular weight polymer to the first high molecular weight polymer.
