Abstract:

The bis-hydrophilic block copolymer poly(acrylic acid)45-block-poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide)360 was obtained after hydrolysis of poly(tert-butyl acrylate)45-block-poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide)360 synthesized by sequential anionic polymerization in the presence of Et3Al. The polymer is stimuli-sensitive with respect to both pH and temperature in aqueous solution, reversibly forming spherical crew-cut micelles with PDEAAm-core (h>z = 21.5 nm) under alkaline conditions for T > 35 °C as well as inverse star-like micelles with expanded PAA-core (h>z = 43.8 nm) under acidic conditions for T < 35 °C, as indicated by Dynamic Light Scattering.
