Block 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 کاملPhycocyanin, cyanobacterial antioxidant: structure, function and applications
Phycobilins, open-chain tetrapyrrole pigment molecules, serve as accessory photosynthetic light-harvesting pigments in red algae and cyanobacteria. Phycobilin pigments are covalently linked with proteins and formed phycobiliproteins are organized into large macromolecular complexes called phycobilisomes on the top of the thylakoid membranes. In deep water, only green light is available, thus ph...
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 کاملTwo-dimensional self-assembly in diblock copolymers.
Diblock copolymers confined to a two-dimensional surface may produce uniform features of macromolecular dimensions (approximately 10-100 nm). We present a mathematical model for nanoscale pattern formation in such polymers that captures the dynamic evolution of a solution of poly(styrene)-b-poly(ethylene oxide), PS-b-PEO, in solvent at an air-water interface. The model has no fitting parameters...
