AbstractAmphiphilic diblock copolymer poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PMMA-b-PAA) was prepared by 1,1-diphenylethene (DPE) method. Firstly, free radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate was carried out with AIBN as initiator in the presence of DPE, giving a DPE-containing PMMA precursor with controlled molecular weight. tert-Butyl acrylate (tBA) was then polymerized in the presence of the PMMA precursor, and PMMA-b-PtBA diblock copolymer with controlled molecular weight was prepared. Finally, amphiphilic diblock copolymer PMMA-b-PAA was obtained by hydrolysis of PMMA-b-PtBA. The formation of PMMA-b-PAA was confirmed by 1H NMR spectrum and gel permeation chromatography. Transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering were used to detect the self-assembly behavior of the amphiphilic diblock polymers in methanol.
