[en] The surface compositions of a series of random copolymers of styrene and deuteriostyrene have been determined by SIMS. The mechanism of fragmentation during the SIMS process is examined, and the contribution from naturally occurring isotopes is evaluated. The data are shown to fit a model of a completely random copolymer system if they are corrected for the effects of impurities introduced in the syntheses and for the contribution from C-13.
