Disperse blocks are indicated with a tilde (∼) character preceding the (desired) average block lengths.
Number of siloxane, methylene, or l-lactic acid repeat units.
Calculation based on the total number of repeat units.
Number of segments based on a 110 Å3 reference volume.
Volume fraction of the crystalline block, calculated using bulk densities for PDMS (0.95 g mL–1),6,7 PLLA (1.29 g mL–1),32 and tritriacontane (0.82 g mL–1).
Heat effect per mole of BCO.
Average value.
Calculated from relative peak intensities in the MALDI-TOF spectra.
A broad melting range was observed. n.o. = not observed.
