Preferred Label : soft-segment phase domain;
IUPAC definition : phase domain of microscopic or smaller size, usually in a block, graft, or segmented
copolymer, comprising essentially those segments of the polymer that have glass transition
temperatures lower than the temperature of use.;
Scope note : soft-segment phase domains are often larger than hard-segment phase domains and are
often continuous.;
