An atom-efficient, wholly aqueous one-pot synthesis of zwitterionic diblock copolymers has been devised. Such copolymers can serve as highly effective aqueous dispersants for nano-sized transparent yellow iron oxide particles.
Reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization has been widely exploited to produce homogeneous and living polymer networks for advanced material design. In this work, we incorporate silica nanoparticles (SNPs) into a...
A block copolymer library of polylactide and poly(2-hydroxyethyl acrylate) was prepared via sequential ring opening polymerization and RAFT polymerization in a one-pot approach.
Combining a sequential, one-pot RAFT polymerization with the polymerization-induced self-assembly process results in a versatile oxidation-responsive carrier system.
A clean method for preparing ABCBA penta-block terpolymers was developed in a surfactant and organic solvent free emulsion system via one-pot RAFT polymerization.
