Manufacturing method for enhancing ordered structure of block copolymers
The invention is related to a manufacturing method for enhancing an ordered structure of block copolymers, and more particularly to a thermal annealing process for block copolymers having conducting polymers and rod segments. The manufacturing method includes the following steps: (A) providing a block copolymer and a small molecule additive, wherein the block copolymer is formed of first monomers containing at least one aromatic ring and second monomers optionally containing at least one aromatic ring; and the small molecule additive is a aliphatic molecule, an aromatic molecule or a combination thereof; (B) blending the block copolymer and the small molecule additive to form a mixture; and (C) treating the mixture with a thermal annealing process to manufacture and facilitate the ordered structure of the block copolymers.
