We report here on the segment effects of poly(ethylene oxide)-containing block copolymers (PEO-BCP) on the reduction activity for tetrachloride gold(III) ([AuCl(4)](-)), interfacial activity for gold surface, colloidal stability, and morphology of gold nanoparticles formed in aqueous solutions. In particular, the effects of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), poly(propylene oxide) (PPO), polyethylene (...

linear–dendrite copolymers containing hyper branched poly(citric acid) and linear poly(ethylene glycol) blocks pca–peg–pca are promising nonmaterial to use  in nanomedicine. to investigate their potential application in biological systems (especially for drug carries) oniom2 calculations were applied to study the nature of particular interactions between drug and the polymeric nanoparticles.  b...

Organic-inorganic hybrid electrolyte membranes based on poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol) bis(2-aminopropyl ether) complexed with LiClO4 via the co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl isocyanate have been prepared and characterized. A variety of techniques such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier tra...
