Abstract
We study the formation of hybrid polymer/inorganic colloidal particles with multicompartmentalized structure, comprising gold nanoparticles grafted with polystyrene-block-poly(methacrylic acid) (PSt-block-PMAA) diblock copolymer ligands, through experiments and molecular dynamics simulations. The PMAA blocks segregate into small satellite-like domains that are separated by the polystyrene spacer from the gold nanoparticle core. Dialysis against water leads to the re-configuration of the formed structures into unique, kinetically trapped pinned-micelle-decorated nanoparticles with internal structure.
期刊介绍:
ChemPhysChem is one of the leading chemistry/physics interdisciplinary journals (ISI Impact Factor 2018: 3.077) for physical chemistry and chemical physics. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies.
ChemPhysChem is an international source for important primary and critical secondary information across the whole field of physical chemistry and chemical physics. It integrates this wide and flourishing field ranging from Solid State and Soft-Matter Research, Electro- and Photochemistry, Femtochemistry and Nanotechnology, Complex Systems, Single-Molecule Research, Clusters and Colloids, Catalysis and Surface Science, Biophysics and Physical Biochemistry, Atmospheric and Environmental Chemistry, and many more topics. ChemPhysChem is peer-reviewed.
