Adaptive Morphology of Surface‐Segregated Micelles Synthesized from Polymerization‐Induced Self‐Assembly Co‐Mediated by a Binary Mixture of Macro‐RAFT Agents
Abstract:Surface‐segregated micelles (SSMs) have shown potential applications in drug delivery, bioimaging, and Pickering emulsions due to their adaptive characteristics. A diverse set of SSMs are prepared by reversible addition–fragmentation transfer (RAFT)‐mediated polymerization‐induced self‐assembly (PISA). However, the obtained self‐assembled structures are mostly limited to spherical forms, and SSMs with a hierarchical structure are not yet prepared. In this study, SSMs with various hierarchical structures are ge… Show more
“…When the degree of polymerization of core-forming block BzMA increase, the morphology of micelles will change from sphere to worm, and then to vesicles. 55 These suggest that surface-segregated micelles are versatile platforms for stabilizing complex liquid/liquid interfaces.…”

Refolding denatured protein into its native form and stabilizing its structure are significant in the production and storage of protein products. The self-assembled mixed-shell polymeric micelle (MSPM) based nanochaperone closely...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
