Περίληψη:
Amphiphilic cylindrical brush-coil block copolymers consisting of a polystyrene coil and a cylindrical brush block with poly(acrylic acid) side chains are prepared by ATRP of t-butylacrylate from a block comacroinitiator. Upon acidolysis of the poly(t-butylacrylate), water-soluble poly mers were obtained that were observed to form micelles consisting of 4-5 block copolymers on average in aqueous' solution. The star-like nature of such micelles was clearly visualized by scanning force microscopy. © 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co, KGaA, Weinheim.
