Core cross-linked star polymers via controlled radical polymerisation

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the development, functionalisation, physical properties and application of core cross-linked star polymers prepared by controlled radical polymerisation and the arm-first approach is provided in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single electron transfer in radical ion and radical-mediated organic, materials and polymer synthesis.

TL;DR: The mechanisms and the applications in organic synthesis, materials, supramolecular, and polymer synthesis of most organic reactions mediated by single electron transfer are discussed, even though both biology and radical chemistry rely extensively on one-electron transfer processes.

Graft Copolymers by a Combination of ATRP and Two Different Consecutive Click Reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the epoxide ring in glycidyl butyrate (model compound) and in well-defined copolymers of methyl methacrylate (MMC) and GCL were efficiently opened with sodium azide in the presence of ammonium chloride in DMF at 50 °C.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stereospecific living radical polymerization: dual control of chain length and tacticity for precision polymer synthesis.

TL;DR: This work presents a meta-anatomy of Stereospecific Living Radical Polymerization, a model derived from previous work on Stereoblock Polymers and Stereogradient Polymers, which describes the dynamic response of these materials to each other.

Polymer vesicles : Materials science: Soft surfaces

Dennis E. Discher, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2002 - 
TL;DR: Future applications of polymer vesicles will rely on exploiting unique property-performance relations, but results to date underscore the fact that biologically derived vesicle are but a small subset of what is physically and chemically possible.

Enabling nanotechnology with self assembled block copolymer patterns

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the current efforts to utilize block copolymers in nanotechnologies including nanostructured membranes, BCP templates for nanoparticle synthesis, photonic crystals, and high-density information storage media is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advanced drug delivery devices via self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers

TL;DR: Two approaches to further improve the effectiveness of amphiphilic block copolymer-based drug delivery systems are discussed and the feasibility of channel proteins and metal (nano)particles to improve temporal control over the drug release process is discussed.
