Giant tubular and toroidal vesicles from self-assembled triblock copolymer-polyaniline complexes in water.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An ABA type amphiphilic triblock copolymer was synthesized via ATRP and sulfonation. New self-assembled morphologies such as toroidal vesicles, giant tubular vesicles, and perforated spherical vesicles were observed from triblock copolymer-polyaniline complexes in water. The mechanism of morphology transformation at different compositions was discussed.

Self-assembly of amphiphilic ABC star triblock copolymers and their blends with AB diblock copolymers in solution: self-consistent field theory simulations.
The self-assembled morphologies of amphiphilic ABC star triblock copolymers consisting of hydrophilic A blocks and hydrophobic B and C blocks and the blends with their counterpart linear AB diblock copolymers in solution are investigated by 2D real-space implementation of self-consistent field theory (SCFT) simulation. The star triblock copolymers self-assemble in solution to form various micel...

Induced by systematic variation of the initial polymer concentration in toluene, various morphologies of aggregates including vesicles, spheres, onion-like structures, and worm-like fibers from a rod-coil-rod triblock copolymer, oligo(p-phenyleneethynylene)-polystyrene-oligo(p-phenyleneethynylene), were observed by transmission electron microscopy.
متن کاملComplex micelles from the self-assembly of coil-rod-coil amphiphilic triblock copolymers in selective solvents
We report an extensive simulation study on the spontaneous formation of complex micelles from coilrod-coil amphiphilic triblock copolymers in dilute solution resulting from solvent selectivity. The amphiphilic molecule is built from one hydrophilic block on each side and a hydrophobic block in the middle. The rigidity of the rod block is introduced by adding a bond-bending potential of the angl...
متن کاملShear flow controlled morphological polydispersity of amphiphilic ABA triblock copolymer vesicles.
Self-assembled polymeric aggregates are generally polydisperse in morphology due to the existence of many metastable states in the system. This shortcoming becomes a bottleneck for preparing high quality self-assembled polymeric materials. An important concern is the possibility of controlling morphological polydispersity through the modulation of the metastable states. In this study, both simu...
متن کاملHydrogen peroxide-responsive micelles self-assembled from a peroxalate ester-containing triblock copolymer.
A novel ABA triblock copolymer by using peroxalate esters as linkages was synthesized. In water, this amphiphilic copolymer self-assembled into micelles which were used as drug delivery carriers. When stimulated with hydrogen peroxide, the micelles disassembled to release drugs since the responsive peroxalate ester linkages would be cleaved after the reaction with hydrogen peroxide.
