Polyvinylferrocene-Based Amphiphilic Block Copolymers Featuring Functional Junction Points for Cross-Linked Micelles
2016
The synthesis of high-molecular-weight, well-defined poly(vinylferrocene)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (PVFc-b-PEG) diblock copolymers (Mn = 13 000–44 000 g mol–1; Đ = 1.29–1.34) with precisely one allyl group at the junction point is introduced. Allyl glycidyl ether (AGE) was used to end-functionalize PVFc, resulting in hydroxyl functional macroinitiators for the oxyanionic polymerization of ethylene oxide. The self-assembly behavior of the amphiphilic PVFc-b-PEG copolymers in water has been investigated in a detailed manner, using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The redox activity of the PVFc block was confirmed by UV/vis spectroscopy, while cyclo…
Isoprene/Styrene Tapered Multiblock Copolymers with up to Ten Blocks: Synthesis, Phase Behavior, Order, and Mechanical Properties
2018
The living anionic copolymerization of isoprene and styrene in cyclohexane affords tapered block copolymers due to the highly disparate reactivity ratios of rI = 12.8 and rS = 0.051. Repeated addit...
