  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007622",
  "term": "Multicoat morphology",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A concentric-shell structure found when a block copolymer is mixed with a homopolymer identical to one of its blocks: copolymer and homopolymer form alternating layers around a common centre, like an onion. Particles of this kind dispersed in a matrix of the homopolymer are equivalent to onion morphology.",
