In this review, we highlight the progress realized in recent years on light-responsive
polymers. More precisely, we provide some guidelines towards the rational design of photo …

This in-depth review covers progress in the area of polyferrocenylsilanes (PFS), a well-
established, readily accessible class of main chain organosilicon metallopolymer consisting …

The incorporation of metal complexes into polymers leads to functional materials; whereas,
the properties of polymers–easy processability, light weight or the adjustable molar mass …

Incorporation of a desired stimuli-responsive unit in a stereospecific manner at the specific
location within a nonlinear block copolymer architecture is a challenging task in synthetic …

One critical challenge facing society is balancing the positive and negative effects of UV
exposure. While UV exposure contributes to Vitamin D production, in excess, UV exposure …

Nucleated self-assembly in selective solvents of core-crystalline block copolymers (BCPs) is
a special case of living supramolecular polymerization, leading to rodlike micelles of …

Crystallisation-driven self-assembly (CDSA) has become an extremely valuable technique
in the preparation of well-defined nanostructures using diblock copolymers. The use of …

Because of the advantageous properties, the photoresponsive bioinspired polymers are of
great interest for many applications. In this study, we synthesized a new family of …

Crystallization-driven self-assembly of polyethylene-b-poly (tert-butylacrylate)(PE-b-PtBA)
block copolymers (BCPs) in N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) was studied. It is found that all …

Although fiber-like micelles with a crystalline core prepared by living crystallization-driven
self-assembly show promising applications in biomedicine, undesirable fragmentation of …
