PDMAEMA-b-PLMA-b-POEGMA triblock terpolymers via RAFT polymerization and their self-assembly in aqueous solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the synthesis, quaternization and self-assembly in aqueous media of novel amphiphilic and pH responsive triblock terpolymers of the type poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate-b-lauryl methcrylate,b-(oligo ethylene glycol)methacrylated] (PDMAEMA-b,PLMA-b-,b-POEGMA).
Journal ArticleDOI
PLMA‐b‐POEGMA amphiphilic block copolymers: Synthesis and self‐assembly in aqueous media
TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis and self-assembly properties in aqueous solutions of novel amphiphilic block copolymers composed of one hydrophobic poly (lauryl methacrylate), (PLMA) block and one hyrophilic poly (oligo ethylene glycol methacriclate) (POEGMA), were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chimeric lipid/block copolymer nanovesicles: Physico-chemical and bio-compatibility evaluation

TL;DR: Light scattering, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and imaging techniques were employed in order to elucidate the structure and properties of the nanostructures, as well as the cooperativity between the components, and indicated good in vitro biological stability and low cytotoxicity in vivo of the novel nanocarriers.
Journal ArticleDOI
pH- and thermo-responsive solution behavior of amphiphilic, linear triblock terpolymers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported on the synthesis and self-assembly in aqueous media, of novel amphiphilic double-responsive (temperature and pH) linear triblock terpolymers having the chain structure poly(n-butyl acrylate-b-N-isopropylacrylamide-b 2-(dimethylamino) ethyl acylate) (PnBA)-b-PNIPAM-PDMAEA).
Journal ArticleDOI
PLMA-b-POEGMA Amphiphilic Block Copolymers as Nanocarriers for the Encapsulation of Magnetic Nanoparticles and Indomethacin
TL;DR: Results indicate that the cumulative hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance of all components determines the colloidal stability of the nanosystems.
