The ferroelectricity of the Poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorofloroethylene) terpolymer films fabricated by the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) technology were investigated from 180 to 300 K. The temperature dependence of the remanent polarization and the dielectric response shows a broad peak at ~ 270 K, suggesting a ferroelectric phase transition. Contrary to the perovskite relaxor, a d...

Analysis of the chemokine analogs synthesised on a terpolymer-polystyrene, N-vinylpyrrolidone, 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate crosslinked resin (PS-NVP-HDDA) showed it can be used good solid support for chemical synthesis polypeptides. The polymer with swelling character and resistance was by radical aqueous suspension polymerisation technique. HPLC analysis crude peptides PS-NVP-HDDA that is better...

Multiblock copolymers with charged blocks are complex systems that show great potential for enhancing the structural control of block copolymers. A pentablock terpolymer PMMA-b-PDMAEMA-b-P2VP-b-PDMAEMA-b-PMMA is investigated. It contains two types midblocks, which weak cationic polyelectrolytes, namely poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP). Further...

We report the first use of a non-frustrated block terpolymer for the synthesis of highly ordered oxide nanocomposites containing multiple plies. The morphological behavior of 15 ISO-oxide nanocomposites was investigated spanning a large range of compositions along the ƒ(I)=ƒ(S) isopleth using aluminosilicate and niobia sols. Morphologies were determined by TEM and SAXS measurements. Four morpho...

Au(i)/Y(iii) single chain nanoparticles (SCNPs) are potent homogenous, recyclable catalysts for the hydroamination. The SCNPs consist of terpolymer chains with orthogonal ligand units, enabling selective embedding different metals.

This article describes the stability and reversibility of ultrathin films of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA)-vinylimidazole (VI)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) graft terpolymer adsorbed at the solid-liquid interface upon temperature cycling from below to above its phase transition temperature. The coil-to-globule and globule-to-coil phase transitions were captured by in situ fluid tapping atomic forc...

A methacrylic terpolymer system with non-fouling interfacial properties was synthesized by the random copolymerization of hexyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate and sulfobetaine methacrylate (a monomer bearing a zwitterionic pendant group). Polymers were synthesized from feeds containing 0-15 mol.% of the zwitterion-containing methacrylate. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance verified the incorp...

A nonconjugated methacrylate terpolymer containing carbazole moieties (electron donors), 1,3,4-oxadiazole moieties (electron acceptors), and Coumarin-6 in the pendant groups was synthesized via free radical copolymerization of methacrylate monomers containing the respective functional groups. The terpolymer was formed into 57 nm particles through a mini-emulsion route. For a thin 100 nm film of...
