  • Title: Supracolloidal chains of patchy micelles of diblock copolymers with in situ synthesized nanoparticles.
    Author: Jang S, Kim K, Jeon J, Kang D, Sohn BH.
    Journal: Soft Matter; 2017 Oct 04; 13(38):6756-6760. PubMed ID: 28937168.
    Abstract:
    Supracolloidal chains of diblock copolymer micelles were functionalized with gold and silver nanoparticles (NPs). Both NPs were independently synthesized in situ in the core of spherical micelles which were then converted to patchy micelles. With these patchy micelles as colloidal monomers, supracolloidal chains were polymerized by combining the patches of neighboring micelles. Since all micelles contained NPs, NPs were incorporated in every repeat unit of chains. In addition, a single gold NP was synthesized in the micellar core in contrast to several silver NPs so that we differentiated the chains with Au NPs from those with Ag NPs by the number of NPs in the repeat unit as well as by plasmonic bands in UV-Vis spectra.
