Extended Data Fig. 9: Stability of the interface with all three types of dynamic crosslinks and mixing binary melts with longer chains, n = 100.

Extended Data Fig. 9

a, Total crosslink fraction = 0.1, (AB fraction = 0.01). b, Total crosslink fraction = 0.21, (AB fraction = 0.013). The interface width is stable when all three crosslinks are allowed. c, MD snapshot of a system with all three types of crosslinks allowed showing no mixing. d, Radial distribution functions of three systems – binary melt with no crosslinks (red), and binary melt with all three types of dynamic crosslinks (green) indicate unmixed states, and binary melt with only AB dynamic crosslinks (blue) indicates mixing.
