Templated-PISA: Driving Polymerization-Induced Self-Assembly towards the Fibre Morphology
Résumé
Dispersions of block-copolymer fibres in water have many potential applications and can be obtained by polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA), but only in very restricted experimental conditions. In order to enlarge this experimental window, we introduced a supramolecular moiety, a hydrogen-bonded bis-urea sticker, in the macromolecular reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer agent to drive the morphology of the nano-objects produced by RAFT-mediated PISA towards the fibre morphology. This novel concept is tested in the synthesis of a series of poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)-b-poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (PDMAc-b-PMEA) diblock copolymers prepared by dispersion polymerization in water. The results prove that the introduction of the templating bis-urea stickers into PISA greatly promotes the formation of fibres in a large experimental window.
