Nanostructured Colloidal Particles by Confined Self-Assembly of Block Copolymers in Evaporative Droplets
Block copolymers (BCPs) can create various morphology by self-assembly in bulk or film. Recently, using BCPs in confined geometries such as thin film (one-dimension), cylindrical template (two-dimension), or emulsion droplet (three-dimension), nanostructured BCP particles have been prepared, in which unique nanostructures of the BCP are formed via solvent annealing process and can be controlled...
متن کاملEnzymatically triggered self-assembly of block copolymers.
The polymerization of vinyl monomers with cleavable enzymatic substrates has been shown to lead to water-soluble double-hydrophilic block copolymers which, upon enzymatic activation of the diblock copolymers, become amphiphilic and undergo self-assembly into colloidal nanostructures. The ability to change the chemical and physical characteristics of polymeric materials by an enzymatic reaction ...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of rod-coil block copolymers.
We present a self-consistent field theory model for the self-assembly behavior of rod-coil block copolymers. The orientational interactions between the rods were modeled through a Maier-Saupe interaction, while the enthalpic interactions between rods and coils were modeled through a standard Flory-Huggins approach. We outline a "real-space" numerical approach to solve the self-consistent field ...
متن کاملBlock Copolymers: Synthesis, Self-Assembly, and Applications
Research on block copolymers (BCPs) has played a critical role in the development of polymer chemistry, with numerous pivotal contributions that have advanced our ability to prepare, characterize, theoretically model, and technologically exploit this class of materials in a myriad of ways in the fields of chemistry, physics, material sciences, and biological and medical sciences. The breathtaki...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly of Polyhedral Hybrid Colloidal Particles
We have developed a new method to produce hybrid particles with polyhedral shapes in very high yield (liter quantities at up to 70% purity) using a combination of emulsion polymerization and inorganic surface chemistry. The procedure has been generalized to create complex geometries, including hybrid line segments, triangles, tetrahedra, octahedra, and more. The optical properties of these part...
