Preparation of Azobenzene-Containing Amphiphilic Diblock Copolymers for Light-Responsive Micellar Aggregates

Wang, Guang, Tong, Xia, Zhao, Yue·2004·Macromolecules

Abstract

Diblock copolymers composed of a side-chain liquid crystalline azobenzene-containing polymethacrylate and poly( tert -butyl acrylate) (PAzoMA- b -P t BA) were prepared using atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). After subsequent selective hydrolysis of P t BA yielding poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), amphiphilic diblock copolymers of PAzoMA- b -PAA were obtained. Aggregation of either PAzoMA or PAA block occurs in solvents selective for one of the blocks. Adding water into dioxane solution of PAzoMA- b -PAA forms micellar aggregates due to the hydrophobic PAzoMA block. Under alternating UV and visible light illumination, reversible changes in micellar aggregates, for both core−shell micelles and vesicles, took place as a result of the reversible trans−cis photoisomerization of azobenzene mesogens in PAzoMA.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
