Amphiphilic Block Copolymer Nano-micelles: Effect of Length Ratio of the Hydrophilic Block
Block copolymer nano-micelles are especially important in cancer treatment because of their fine dimensions. In this article, three systems of amphiphilic copolymers with similar lengths and different ratios of the hydrophobic and hydrophilic chains are studied using implicit-solvent coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations. The factor fphil is defined as the ratio of the number...
متن کاملMechano-Responsive Hydrogels Crosslinked by Block Copolymer Micelles.
Block copolymer micelles (BCMs) were prepared from amphiphilic diblock copolymers of poly(n-butyl acrylate) and poly(acrylic acid) partially modified with 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Radical polymerization of acrylamide in the presence of micellar crosslinkers gave rise to elastomeric hydrogels (BCM-PAAm) whose mechanical properties can be tuned by varying the BCM composition. Transmission electro...
متن کاملFreezing-induced ordering of block copolymer micelles.
We demonstrate here the ordering of block copolymer micelles by ice templating, below 0 °C. We used this for the preparation of silica monoliths that present an ice-templated macroporosity, combined with a 2D hexagonal mesostructure templated by the addition of P123. We propose a mechanism triggered by the progressive freezing-induced concentration.
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.
