Hockey-Puck Micelles from Oligo(p-benzamide)-b-PEG Rod-Coil Block Copolymers

Hard‐core visualization: Bilayer hockey‐puck micelles are formed in nonpolar solvents from “sticky” rod–coil block copolymers based on oligo(p‐benzamide)s. Images obtained by scanning force microscopy (SFM) give insight into the structure of the anisotropic micellar core. The picture shows a model (...

Description
Summary:Hard‐core visualization: Bilayer hockey‐puck micelles are formed in nonpolar solvents from “sticky” rod–coil block copolymers based on oligo(p‐benzamide)s. Images obtained by scanning force microscopy (SFM) give insight into the structure of the anisotropic micellar core. The picture shows a model (left) and an SFM image (right) of the micelle consisting of an aramide core and a poly(ethylene glycol) corona.
