It is well-known that surfactants are molecules able to modify the surface properties of the
liquid in which they are introduced (usually water). The simultaneous presence of both …

This paper reviews the advances during the last decade in the synthesis and chemical
structures of the important class of charged polymers that bear quaternary ammonium …

Multicompartment micelles are an intriguing class of self-assembled aggregates with
subdivided solvophobic cores. They have been subject to extensive research in part due to …

By combining three mutually immiscible polymeric components in a mixed-arm star block
terpolymer architecture, we have observed the formation of a previously unknown class of …

Four amphiphilic poly ((1, 2-butadiene)-block-ethylene oxide)(PB− PEO) diblock copolymers
were shown to aggregate strongly and form micelles in an ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3 …

The progress in synthetic polymer chemistry has allowed the precise design of hybrid and
multifunctional colloidal particles, which differ in type, size and shape, thus enhancing their …

Several new multicompartment micellar structures have been identified by cryogenic
transmission electron microscopy (cryoTEM) from the aqueous self-assembly of μ-[poly …

The simultaneous, segregated storage of two different chromophores in a multicompartment
micelle, which is formed from self-assembly of (polyethylethylene)(polyethylene oxide) …

We report the formation of vesicles with a laterally nanostructured membrane by self-
assembly of “miktoarm” star terpolymers, that is, macromolecules with three chemically …

We report the detailed characterization of micelles formed by two nonionic, amphiphilic ABC
triblock copolymers. Poly (ethylene oxide)-b-poly (styrene)-b-1, 2-poly (butadiene)(PEO-b …
