星形胶束自由能和聚集数的理论分析

ＡＢ型嵌段聚合物在选择性溶剂中将发生微相分离,形成一种球形胶束[1].所谓选择性溶剂是指此溶剂仅能溶解共聚物中某一链段,而对另一链段则为不良溶剂.对这一体系的实验研究是从80年代兴起的,主要采用现代测试技术来表征形成胶束的回转半径[2],动力学半径[3]、聚集数[4]和临界胶束浓度[5].从分子图景上看来,这种球形胶束包括两部分,内核(Ｃｏｒｅ)为密堆砌的链段Ａ;壳层(Ｃｏｒｏｎａ)为溶涨的链段.Ｈｅｌｆａｎｄ等[6]最早利用数值计算法来研究嵌段聚合物在本体中的微相分离的问题;Ｌｅｉｂｌｅｒ等[7]将此方法引入嵌段聚合物/均聚物体系.…

ABC三嵌段共聚物胶束从多间隔结构到多核结构转变的Monte Carlo模拟

采用Monte Carlo模拟方法研究了疏水-亲水-疏水(H-P-H)型ABC三嵌段共聚物在B嵌段的选择性溶剂中的自组装行为. 模拟结果表明, 通过调节A嵌段和C嵌段的疏水性和二者之间的不相容性, 体系中可以形成多种形貌各异的胶束. 根据胶束中疏水核结构的特点, 这些胶束大体上可以被分为多核型胶束和多间隔型胶束两种类型. 通过增强疏水嵌段的疏水性或降低A嵌段和C嵌段间的不相容性, H-P-H型ABC三嵌段共聚物胶束能够发生从多核型胶束向多间隔型胶束的转变. 进一步分析胶束中聚合物的链构象等微观结构信息发现, A嵌段和C嵌段间的排斥作用和疏水作用之间存在竞争关系, 而这种竞争关系是影响体系中形成多核型胶束还是多间隔型胶束的决定性因素.

Temperature-sensitive dendritic micelles

Syntheses up to three generations have been achieved of biaryl-based amphiphilic dendrons with a charge-neutral pentaethylene glycol as the hydrophilic part and a decyl chain as the hydrophobic part. Studies on the temperature-dependent characteristics revealed that these dendrons exhibit a generation-dependent lower critical solution temperature (LCST). This behavior is attributed to the combination of the amphipathic nature of the hydrophilic pentaethylene glycol side chain and dendritic effect. Interestingly, this biaryl-based scaffold also maintains the ability to form a micelle-like assembly in polar solvents and an inverted micelle-like assembly in apolar solvents. Polarity of the dendritic interior was investigated using dye-based microenvironment studies. The aggregation behavior of these micelles was analyzed by fluorescence spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering. Critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of these assemblies were investigated using fluorescence excitation spectra of the sequestered guest molecule, pyrene.     

Amphiphilic poly(D,L-lactic acid)/poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(D,L-lactic acid) nanogels for controlled release of hydrophobic drugs

Photocrosslinked nanogels with a hydrophobic core and hydrophilic shell are successfully fabricated with the goal of obtaining a biocompatible and biodegradable drug carrier for hydrophobic anticancer drugs. These nanogels are composed of amphiphilic triblock copolymers, poly(D,L-lactic acid)/poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PLA-PEG-PLA), with acrylated groups at the end of the PLA segments. The copolymers are synthesized by ring-opening polymerization and possess a low CMC (49.6 mg x L(-1)), which easily helps to form micelles by self-assembly. The acrylated end groups allow the micelles to be photocrosslinked by ultraviolet irradiation, which turn the micelles into nanogels. These nanogels exhibit excellent stability as a suspension in aqueous media at ambient temperature as compared to the micelles. Moreover, the size of the nanogels is easily manipulated in a range of 150 to 250 nm by changing the concentration of crosslinkers, e.g., ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, and ultraviolet light irradiation time. The nanogels achieve a high encapsulation efficiency and offer a steady and long-term release mechanism for the hydrophobic anticancer drug, CPT. It shows that these nanogels are useful for a hydrophobic anticancer drug-carrier system. [pictures: see text] Formation of the PLA-PEG-PLA nanogels.     

Preparation and self-assembly of pH-sensitive amphiphilic comb-shaped copolymer containing long fluorinated side chains

Novel pH-sensitive amphiphilic comb-shaped copolymers containing long fluorinated side chains, which combined the characteristics of pH-sensitivity from pendent tertiary amine groups, unique hydrophobic and fluorophobic characteristic from the fluorinated moieties and hydrophilicity from the poly (ethylene glycol) segments, were designed and synthesized via radical polymerizaion of 2-(Dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA), poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) and homemade fluorinated macromonomer (PHFBMA-GMA). The physicochemical properties of polymeric micelles prepared therefrom were investigated. The chemical structures of the copolymers were characterized by GPC, FTIR and ¹H-NMR. The critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of the copolymers in different pH (5.0 and 7.4) were determined by fluorescence spectroscopy. Larger CMCs could be obtained in lower pH since the pronation of DMAEMA moieties enhanced the hydrophilicity. With increasing the amount, as well as the molecular weight, of PHFBMA-GMA, CMC decreased significantly. As pH decreased, particle size, as well as zeta potential of the polymeric micelles increased significantly, indicating significant pH-sensitivity of the polymeric micelles. Furthermore, larger polymeric micelles were obtained with larger amount, as well as higher molecular weight, of PHFBMA-GMA. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the morphological shapes of the copolymers performed spherical micelles. The cytotoxicity test showed that the comb-shaped copolymers performed extremely low cytotoxicity. The pH-sensitive polymeric micelles prepared from the amphiphilic comb-shaped copolymers containing long fluorinated side chains could be potential candidates for nanotanks for hydrophobic or fluorophobic molecules and drug carriers and the facile preparation might fit for large scale industrialization.

Water-dispersible, uniform nanospheres by heating-enabled micellization of amphiphilic block copolymers in polar solvents

Uniform nanospheres with tunable size down to 30 nm were prepared simply by heating amphiphilic block copolymers in polar solvents. Unlike reverse micelles prepared in nonpolar, oily solvents, these nanospheres have a hydrophilic surface, giving them good dispersibility in water. Furthermore, they are present as individual, separated, rigid particles upon casting from the solution other than continuous thin films of merged micelles cast from micellar solution in nonpolar solvents. These nanospheres were generated by a heating-enabled micellization process in which the affinity between the solvent and the polymer chains as well as the segmental mobility of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic blocks was enhanced, triggering the micellization of the glassy copolymers in polar solvents. This heating-enabled micellization produces purely well-defined nanospheres without interference of other morphologies. The micelle sizes and corona thickness are tunable mainly by changing the lengths of the hydrophobic and hydrophilic blocks, respectively. The heating-enabled micellization route for the preparation of polymeric nanospheres is extremely simple, and is particularly advantageous in producing rigid, micellar nanospheres from block copolymers with long glassy, hydrophobic blocks which are otherwise difficult to prepare with high efficiency and purity. Furthermore, encapsulation of hydrophobic molecules (e.g., dyes) into micelle cores could be integrated into the heating-enabled micellization, leading to a simple and effective process for dye-labeled nanoparticles and drug carriers.

Surface activity of new invertible amphiphilic polyesters based on poly(ethylene glycol) and aliphatic dicarboxylic acids

The surface active properties of aqueous solutions of invertible amphiphilic alternated polyesters differing by hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) and molecular weight have been determined over the wide concentration range. The polyesters are based on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) of two molecular weights and aliphatic dicarboxylic acids (decanedioic and dodecanedioic). The surface activity of the polyesters and their ability to form micellar assemblies (which was recently shown for organic solvents) has been confirmed in water. The central role of the balance of hydrophilic to hydrophobic groups ratio in the formation of polymeric arrangements having hydrophobic pockets and external hydrophilic shell has been shown. The effect of molecular weight has been found considerable as well. Two changes in slope have been observed for the more hydrophobic polyesters in the surface tension vs log concentration curve. The change at low concentration is believed to originate from the formation of polyester assemblies with a hydrophobic interior and hydrophilic exterior due to the interaction of hydrophobic fragments and macromolecular flexibility. The higher concentration region exhibits behavior consistent with a cmc, which was confirmed by additional dye solubilization experiments. Molecular structure of the polyester micelles is determined by the solubilization of a solvatochromic dye. The experiment confirmed that micellization of polyesters is accompanied by the association of more hydrophobic (aliphatic) constituents forming the micelle interior. The hydrophilic fragments (ethylene oxide groups) are involved in the formation of micelle exterior.
