André H. Gröschel,Felix H. Schacher,Holger Schmalz,O. V. Borisov,O. V. Borisov,Ekaterina B. Zhulina,Andreas Walther,Axel H. E. Müller +7 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates control over the hierarchical step-growth polymerization of multicompartment micelles into micron-scale segmented supracolloidal polymers as an example of programmable mesoscale colloidal hierarchies via well-defined patchy nanoobjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coil-globule type transitions in polymers. 1. Collapse of layers of grafted polymer chains
TL;DR: In this paper, a mean-field analytical theory describing the conformational transition related to the collapse of the layers of polymer chains grafted onto the impermeable surfaces of different morphologies (a planar surface, a sphere, and a cylinder) has been developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the Interactions between Polymers and Clay Surfaces through Self-Consistent Field Theory
TL;DR: Using numerical self-consistent field (SCF) calculations, Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the interactions between two closely spaced surfaces and the surrounding polymer melt, and developed an analytical SCF theory to model the interactions among the functionalized chains, nonfunctionalized polymers and the clay sheets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of steric stabilization of colloid dispersions by grafted polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, a mean-field analytical theory describing the interaction between two colloid particles covered with densely grafted polymer chains is developed, depending on the degree of polymerization, the thermodynamic stiffness of stabilizing chains, the solvent quality and the density of grafting of the chains onto the surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of Ionizable Polymer Brushes
TL;DR: In this paper, the mean field theory describing the conformation of an ionizable polymer chain (weak polyacid or polybase) grafted at one end onto an impermeable planar surface and immersed into a water-salt solution is presented.
