14. φ̄. Second, the initial slope is equal to the slope of the common tangent [F(φ) - F(0)]/φ = μ(0) = ρ -1. The two conditions lead to p = -φ̄ 1n(1 - φ̄)/φ̄ + (1 - φ̄) 1n(1 - φ̄) φ̄ approaches unity as ρ increase and for large ρ, ρ ≈ 1n(1 -φ̄) thus leading to eq 6.
15. The repulsive interaction between any number of monomers are accounted for by the Flory-Huggins free energy. Attractive interactions between clusters are not however taken into account. See section IV.
