22. Isothermal crystallization experiments performed for several days at larger undercoolings (at 40°C) led to the same observations. Thin films of PI-b-PFS, containing 11 or 23 mol % of EM, showed no sign of crystallization after being kept at room temperature for several days.

28. g value of 15°C; see ref 16.
29. g values correspond to the midpoint of the heat capacity change. Thin films were spin-coated from 1 wt % PI-b-PFS solutions in toluene and left overnight at room temperature to phase-separate. Oxygen reactive ion etching experiments and AFM studies were performed as described in ref 4.
