Excluded Volumes

Binary cluster integrals or excluded volumes for chemically different segment pairs in block copolymers of poly(isoprene : styrene) have been calculated from the equation derived by Froelich and Benoit for a two- sequence block copolymer. Expansion factors have been recalculated assuming a linear relation for [η]θ with respect to composition employing published values for polystyrene and polyisoprene. The results are discussed in relation to possible conformations of block copolymers.

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization was used to modify organic soluble gold nanoparticles with redox-active polymers. A gel-permeation chromatography study revealed that each nanoparticle is modified with approximately 11 polymer chains. Electrochemical studies of nanoparticles modified with block copolymers of two different redox-active groups revealed that each monomer is electrochemically accessible, while no current rectification was observed.

AbstractBlock copolymers are well recognized as excellent nanotools for delivering hydrophobic drugs. The formulation of such delivery nanoparticles requires robust characterization and clarification of the critical quality attributes correlating with the safety and efficacy of the drug before applying to regulatory authorities for approval. Static solution scattering from block copolymers is one such technique. This paper first outlines the theoretical background and current models for analyzing this scattering and then presents an overview of our recent studies on block copolymers.
