“…As shown in Figure 4, Tables S3 and S4, and Figure S11, unimolecular spherical micelles were obtained in DPD simulations after minimizing the total free energy. Additionally, simulation results also showed that the diameters of unimolecular spherical micelles formed by solution self-assembly of poly(APOSS-BPOSS) 12 , poly(APOSS-BPOSS) 17 , poly(APOSS-BPOSS) 22 , and poly-(APOSS-BPOSS) 35 were 3.25, 3.58, 4.44, and 5.02 nm, respectively. Considering the inevitable errors of the coarse-grained (CG) model and experimental errors, the micellar sizes obtained by simulations were consistent with the experimental results measured by DLS (3.4, 3.6, 3.7, and 4.5 nm for n = 12, 17, 22, and 35, respectively).…”
