Stimuli-responsive smart gating membranes.
Membranes are playing paramount roles in the sustainable development of myriad fields such as energy, environmental and resource management, and human health. However, the unalterable pore size and surface properties of traditional porous membranes restrict their efficient applications. The performances of traditional membranes will be weakened upon unavoidable membrane fouling, and they cannot...
متن کاملRheology and structure of worm-like micelles
Although worm-like micelles have been studied for over 20 years, the diversity of macroscopic behavior and the potential analogy to polyelectrolytes has driven continued study. During the last year, development and application of more realistic scattering models has yielded a deeper understanding of micelle structure. Comprehensive studies on systematic systems are being reported that combine s...
متن کاملSurface Phase Separation and Morphology of Stimuli Responsive Complex Micelles
Synthesis and characterization of block copolymer PEG114-b-P4VP58 and PNIPAM93-b-P4VP58. Materials. Polyethylene glycol methyl ether (CH3O-PEG114-OH, Mn ~ 5000 and the polydispersity index, PDI = 1.05) was purchased from Fluka. The monomer 4-vinyl pyridine (Acros Organics, 95%) was purified by vacuum distillation. N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM, Acros Organics, 99%) was purified by recrystallizat...
متن کاملTargeted worm micelles.
Giant and stable worm micelles formed from poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based diblock copolymer amphiphiles have the potential advantage compared to smaller assemblies for delivery of a large quantity of hydrophobic drugs or dyes per carrier. Here we show that worm micelles can be targeted to cells with internalization and delivery of nontoxic dyes as well as cytotoxic drugs. Constituent copolym...
متن کاملDual stimuli-responsive smart beads that allow "on-off" manipulation of cancer cells.
Temperature- and electric field-responsive polymer-conjugated polystyrene beads, termed smart beads, are designed to isolate cancer cells. In smart beads, the reversible "on-off" antigen-antibody reaction and dielectrophoresis force on an electrode are accomplished to realize "on-off" remote manipulation of smart beads and cancer cells. Both the zeta-potential and the hydrodynamic diameter of t...
