Hydrolytic degradation of poly(ethylene oxide)-block-polycaprolactone worm micelles.
Spherical micelles and nanoparticles made with degradable polymers have been of great interest for therapeutic application, but degradation-induced changes in a spherical morphology can be subtle and mechanism/kinetics appears poorly understood. Here, we report the first preparation of giant and flexible worm micelles self-assembled from degradable copolymer poly(ethylene oxide)-block-polycapro...
متن کاملHierarchy in Block Copolymer Morphology
In the recent years, the study of block copolymers has received special attention from polymer scientists, as it has proved to be of a great importance in a variety of fields like life-sciences, tissue engineering, drug delivery, and nanotechnology and material sciences. This has led to a thorough investigation of the “hierarchy of the block copolymer morphology” i.e. the microscopic level chan...
متن کاملStructure of microemulsion-ABA triblock copolymer networks.
Structural equilibrium properties of transient networks formed by microemulsion droplets and ABA triblock copolymers in solution have been studied by Monte Carlo simulation. The droplets were represented by soft spheres, and the polymers were represented by junctions connected by harmonic bonds with an angular potential regulating the intrinsic chain stiffness. The interaction parameters were s...
متن کاملElectrostatic control of block copolymer morphology.
Energy storage is at present one of the foremost issues society faces. However, material challenges now serve as bottlenecks in technological progress. Lithium-ion batteries are the current gold standard to meet energy storage needs; however, they are limited owing to the inherent instability of liquid electrolytes. Block copolymers can self-assemble into nanostructures that simultaneously faci...
متن کاملReaction-Induced Microphase Separation in Epoxy Thermosets Containing Block Copolymers Composed of Polystyrene and Poly(-caprolactone): Influence of Copolymer Architectures on Formation of Nanophases
We report an investigation of the influence of block copolymer architectures on formation of nanophases in epoxy thermosets via reactioninduced microphase separation approach. Toward this end, three binary block copolymers composed of polystyrene (PS) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) were synthesized via the combination of ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and atomic transfer radical polymerizati...
