11. The size of the micelles is determined by a balance between the entropic losses due to the stretching of the chains to form these aggregates and the energetic gain due to the mutual shielding of the chains from the poor solvent.

27. In the plot, H is scaled by the lateral size of the pinned micelle formed by non-bridging chains, and ΔF is scaled by the free energy per chain for nonbridging micelles.

30. In the case of a planar, penetrable interface, the amount of adsorbed diblock is also significantly greater than that for the alternating copolymer (see Reference 31).
