Gold-Loaded Organic/Inorganic Nanocomposite Honeycomb Membranes* [PDF]

Australian Journal of Chemistry, 2006
RAFT polymerization was used to prepare polystyrene – poly(4-vinyl pyridine) block copolymers, PSn-b-P(4VP)m. Well-defined block copolymers were obtained despite some indications of hydrolysis of the RAFT endgroup during synthesis. The block copolymer PS70-b-P(4VP)55 was self-assembled into micellar structures in dichloromethane, leading to ...
