In thin film A/B polymer/polymer mixtures, the formation of a layer at the free surface, with average composition that differs from the bulk, due to the preferential segregation of the lower cohesive energy density component, is well understood. While much is also understood about this surface layer formation and growth to date, virtually nothing is known about the surface dynamics of the chains in such mixtures. Questions about the surface chain dynamics in relation to the bulk have remained unanswered. With the use of X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) we show that the dynamics of poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) chains at the free surface of polystyrene (PS)/PVME thin film mixtures can be orders of magnitude larger than the PVME chains in the bulk. These dynamics manifest from differences between the local compositions of the blend at the free surface and the bulk, as well as film thickness constraints
