We investigate the impact of center segment dispersity on the phase behavior of 17 lithium salt-doped poly(styrene-block-oligo(ethylene oxide) carbonate-block-styrene) (bSOS) triblock polymers, in which broad dispersity O blocks (ĐO = Mw/Mn ≈ 1.45) are situated between narrow dispersity S segments (ĐS ≤ 1.18) with volume fractions fO = 0.33–0.69 and total Mn = 11.6–43.8 kg/mol. Broad dispersity bSOS triblocks are synthesized by a tandem polycondensation and atom transfer radical polymerization reaction sequence. Using temperature-dependent small-angle X-ray scattering, we map the morphology diagrams for bSOS samples variously doped with lithium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) with r = (mol Li+)/(mol ethylene oxide) = 0.00–0.09. As compared to the phase behavior exhibited by 13 LiTFSI-doped, narrow dispersity SOS triblocks with fO = 0.30–0.58 and Mn = 7.1–45.2 kg/mol, we demonstrate that O segment dispersity shifts the lamellar morphology window to higher fO/salt and the lamellar microdomains di...
