Abstract
As one of the blocks becomes polar relative to the other, the Krause theory (Section 4.7.1) predicts that phase separation will occur with shorter block lengths. Given the shorter block lengths, we are required to consider multiblock polymers of the form ABABAB … in order to maintain high molecular weight and concomitant polymer properties. This chapter will consider two important classes of multiblock copolymers, the polyurethanes and the ionomers.
