The accurate characterization of relative composition in multicomponent polymer systems such as statistical copolymers, block copolymers, and polymer blends is critical to understanding and predicting their behavior. Typically, polymer compositional analysis is performed using 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy
