11. The molecular weights (kg/mol) of the three deuterated polystyrenes, ortho, meta, and para, were 124, 106, and 120, respectively, as determined by gel permeation chromatography. Small-angle light scattering cloud point determinations were made for the blends of the monodeuterated samples, which showed small increases of between 5 and 6 °C in the LCST of the blend over that observed for hydrogenous PS. The LCST results were higher for the meta and para over the ortho deuterated samples. We thank Professor Nitash Balsara for this effort conducted at the Polytechnic University.
