Dual stimuli-responsive dendritic-linear block copolymers

Dendritic-linear block copolymers that have pH responsive poly(benzyl ether) dendrons and temperature responsive PiPrOx chains have been designed by copper-mediated click reactions. These copolymers exhibit sharp thermal transitions with a wide range of pH-dependent thermal transition temperatures.
