A versatile nanoarray electrode produced from block copolymer thin films for specific detection of proteins
Samira Jamil Fayad,Samira Jamil Fayad,Edson Minatti,Valdir Soldi,Sébastien Fort,Pierre Labbe,Redouane Borsali +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a nanostructured thin films obtained from the self-assembly of block copolymers (BCPs) systems can be used as a nanoelectrode array (NEA) that can be programmed to specifically detect targeted molecules.

Frustrated binding of biopolymer crosslinkers
TL;DR: This work measures the network's stress relaxation timescale using rheology and the lifetime of bound crosslinkers using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) and finds that the unbinding rate of singly bound cross linkers is nearly two orders of magnitude slower than for doubly bound ones.

Nanostructures Based on Self-Assembly of Block Copolymers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the recent advances in the formation of nanostructures in bulk, generation of block copolymer based nanotemplate ordered thin films and their potential applications in nanofabrication including template nanolithography, deposition of functional nanomaterials as well as nanoporous membranes.

Self-Assembly in Thin Films during Copolymerization on Patterned Surfaces
TL;DR: In this paper, dissipative particle dynamics with chemical reactions is used to study the question of pattern reproduction by a melt of reacting monomers during polycondensation, and it is possible to obtain structures with long-range order using this approach.

Self-assembly of amphiphilic poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-containing block copolymers in the vicinity of cellulose fibres
TL;DR: In this paper, a well-defined polystyrene-block-poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PS-b-PHEMA) and a non-polar model block copolymer (BCP) were investigated with respect to their capability of microphase separation in the presence of cellulose fibres.

Ordered mesoporous molecular sieves synthesized by a liquid-crystal template mechanism
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of mesoporous inorganic solids from calcination of aluminosilicate gels in the presence of surfactants is described, in which the silicate material forms inorganic walls between ordered surfactant micelles.

Block Copolymer Thermodynamics: Theory and Experiment
TL;DR: Block copolymers are macromolecules composed of sequences, or blocks, of chemically distinct repeat units that make possible the sequential addition of monomers to various carbanion-ter minated ("living") linear polymer chains.

Block Copolymers—Designer Soft Materials
TL;DR: The Knitting Pattern as mentioned in this paper is a block copolymer that was discovered by Reimund Stadler and his coworkers and reflects a delicate free-energy minimization that is common to all blockcopolymer materials.
