Abstract

Molecular recognition based on length was found to occur between oppositely charged pairs of flexible and randomly coiled block copolymers in an aqueous milieu. Matched pairs with the same block lengths of polyanions and polycations exclusively formed even in mixtures with different block lengths. These assemblies of the charged segments with matched chain lengths then formed larger core-shell–type supramolecular assemblies with an extremely narrow size distribution due to the strict phase separation between core- and shell-forming segments.

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.
