Abstract
A versatile high pressure X-ray sample cell has been developed for conducting in situ time-resolved X-ray scattering experiments in the pressure and temperature regime required (pressures up to 210 bars and temperatures up to 120 °C) for chemical reactions in supercritical fluids. The large exit opening angle of the cell allows simultaneous performance of SAXS-WAXS experiments. Diamond windows are used in order to benefit from the combination of maximum strength, minimal X-ray absorption and chemical inertia. The sample cell can also be utilised for X-ray spectroscopy experiments over a wide range of photon energies. Results of the online synthesis of a block copolymer, poly(methyl methacrylate-block-poly(benzyl methacrylate), by Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) in a supercritical CO2 dispersion polymerisation will be discussed. The contribution of the density fluctuations, as function of temperature, to the X-ray scattering signal has been quantified in order to allow appropriate background subtractions.

Abstract
A series of semicrystalline block copolymers (BCPs), poly(4-vinylpyridine)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (P4VP-PCL), with lamellar phases have been synthesized. P4VP-PCL BCP thin films with large-scale, oriented lamellar microdomains were obtained by rimming coating process followed by oscillated shearing using a homemade shear device. Owing to the vitrified P4VP microdomains and strongly segregated microphase separation, specific PCL crystalline chain orientation can be formed from the growth of anisotropic PCL crystallites under confinement so as to uniformly increase the birefringence of the BCP thin films. The enhanced birefringence corresponds well with the increase of PCL crystallinity. Consequently, the birefringence of the P4VP-PCL thin-films can be fine-tuned by PCL crystallization. The variation on the birefringence of the BCP thin films attributed to crystallization and melting is a reversible process with respect to temperature. The BCP thin films can thus be used as temperature-stimulated materials with controllable birefringence via crystallization kinetics.
