Order–Order Morphological Transitions for Dual Stimulus Responsive Diblock Copolymer Vesicles
A series of non-ionic poly(glycerol monomethacrylate)-poly(2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate) (PGMA-PHPMA) diblock copolymer vesicles has been prepared by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) aqueous dispersion polymerization of HPMA at 70 °C at low pH using a carboxylic acid-based chain transfer agent. The degree of polymerization (DP) of the PGMA block was fixed at 43, and the D...
متن کاملEncapsulation of DNA by cationic diblock copolymer vesicles.
Encapsulation of dsDNA fragments (contour length 54 nm) by the cationic diblock copolymer poly(butadiene-b-N-methyl-4-vinyl pyridinium) [PBd-b-P4VPQ] has been studied with phase contrast, polarized light, and fluorescence microscopies, as well as scanning electron microscopy. Encapsulation was achieved with a single emulsion technique. For this purpose, an aqueous DNA solution is emulsified in ...
متن کاملThermo-responsive Diblock Copolymer Worm Gels in Non-polar Solvents
Benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) is polymerized using a poly(lauryl methacrylate) macromolecular chain transfer agent (PLMA macro-CTA) using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization at 70 °C in n-dodecane. This choice of solvent leads to an efficient dispersion polymerization, with polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) occurring via the growing PBzMA block to produ...
متن کاملDynamics and order–disorder transitions in bidisperse diblock copolymer blends
We employ the dynamic extension of self-consistent field theory (DSCFT) to study dynamics and order–disorder transitions (ODT) in AB diblock copolymer binary mixtures of two different monodisperse chain lengths by imitating the dynamic storage modulus G0 corresponding to any given morphology in the oscillatory shear measurements. The different polydispersity index (PDI) is introduced by binary ...
متن کاملNanoparticle-Induced Phase Transitions in Diblock-Copolymer Films
Incorporation of nanoparticles into self-assembled block copolymers has been explored as an efficient way for improving the mechanical strength, electrical conductivity, and optical properties of materials at the nanometer scale. Recent computer simulations predict that the cooperative self-organization of nanoparticles and block copolymers should yield a wide variety of structures with well-co...
