A series of linear poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(4-vinylbenzyl chloride)-b-poly(4-tert-butylstyrene) (PEO₁₁₃-b-PVBC₁₃₀-b-PtBS_x or E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T_x) triblock terpolymers with various lengths x (=20, 33, 66, 104, 215) of PtBS block were synthesized via a two-step reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T triblock terpolymers were non-crystalline because the PVBC and PtBS blocks strongly hindered the crystallization of PEO block. The effects of PtBS block length x on the phase structures of E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T_x triblock terpolymers were investigated by combined techniques of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that with increasing x from 20 to 215, the phase structure of E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T_x triblock terpolymers became more ordered and changed from disordered structure, hexagonally-packed cylinder (HEX), hexagonally perforated layer (HPL), to lamellar (LAM) phase structures. Temperature-variable SAXS measurements showed that the HEX, HPL and LAM phase structures obtained for E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T₆₆, E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T₁₀₄ and E₁₁₃V₁₃₀T₂₁₅ by thermal annealing, respectively, were thermodynamically stable in the temperature range of 30–170 ℃.
