The review summarizes current trends and developments in the polymerization of alkylene
oxides in the last two decades since 1995, with a particular focus on the most important …

Due to their unique magnetic properties, excellent biocompatibility as well as multi-purpose
biomedical potential (eg, applications in cancer therapy and general drug delivery) …

The precise control of the formation of stimuli-sensitive sequences (block or graft) as part of
copolymer architectures is fascinating because of the remarkable phase behavior of their …

Polyglycerols (sometimes also called “polyglycidols”) represent a class of highly
biocompatible and multihydroxy-functional polymers that may be considered as a …

Epoxide derivatives constitute a broad family of monomers which are able to be polymerized
by anionic or related nucleophilic ring-opening mechanism. The main synthetic strategies …

One-third of drugs in development are water insoluble and one-half fail in trials because of
poor pharmacokinetics. Block copolymer micelles are nanosized particles that can solubilize …

Stimuli-responsive block copolymers that exhibit multiple thermal transitions are an
emerging topic, important for understanding thermo-sensitive self-assembling processes …

This article reports on the synthesis of thermo-and light-sensitive hydrophilic block
copolymers, poly (ethylene oxide)-b-poly (ethoxytri (ethylene glycol) acrylate-co-o …

The combination of biology and nanotechnology has led to a new generation of
nanodevices that make it possible to characterize the chemical, mechanical, and other …

Linear polyglycidols of high molar masses were prepared by the monomer-activated anionic
polymerization of the corresponding protected monomers, ethoxyethyl glycidyl ether and tert …
