Crystallization of poly(2‐isobutyl‐2‐oxazoline) and poly(2‐nonyl‐2‐oxazoline) is found to occur by room temperature annealing below the upper critical solution temperature in ethanol–water solvent mixtures. Both polymers produce similar self‐assembled structures (see image), resembling the previously reported crystalline hierarchical structures obtained from hot aqueous poly(2‐isopropyl‐2‐oxazoline) solutions above the lower critical solution temperature. These observations suggest that the crystallization induced self‐assembly process is a rather general phenomenon occurring for semicrystalline polymers in liquid–liquid two phase systems.

Summary: The success of metathesis chemistry techniques has sparked a tremendous interest in polymer and material chemistry. This contribution provides an overview of the state of the art in ring opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP). It is intended to provide the reader with useful information on the interplay of initiators, monomers, and reaction conditions, thus aiding polymer chemists to utilise the ROMP toolbox. Prominent and illustrative examples from current research are given in the article.

Summary: Polyaniline (PANI) nanowires and sub‐micro/nanostructured dendrites are synthesized and immobilized on PP‐g‐PAA film surfaces via routine oxidative polymerization of aniline under different conditions, where grafting poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) served as a template and dopant, and SDS as a surfactant. The immobilized PANI enhances the surface hydrophilicity of the poly(propylene) (PP) films, and a superhydrophilic surface is obtained in this way. The mechanism of forming different morphologies of PANI and of correspondingly obtaining a superhydrophilic surface are briefly discussed.

A facile approach to prepare poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT)/cadmium selenide quantum dot (CdSe QD) hybrid coaxial nanowires by a stepwise self‐assembly process is reported. P3HT nanowires of ≈20 nm diameter are first prepared by self‐assembly in a poor solvent such as cyclohexanone, and then as‐prepared CdSe QDs are deposited compactly onto the P3HT nanowires by non‐covalent interactions between P3HT and CdSe. When illuminated with white light, the hybrid nanowires show enhanced photoconductivity compared with the pristine P3HT nanowires and the blended nanocomposites.

A facile approach to polymer nanocomposites with single‐wall carbon nanotubes and cationic polymers is reported. The composite material was synthesized by producing carboxylic acid groups at the nanotube termini followed by a reaction with poly(allylamine) in water. Fourier transform infrared spectral and thermogravimetric analyses corroborate that the poly(allylamine) chains were wrapped on the surface of the carbon nanotubes. The scanning electron microscopic (SEM) image shows that the nanotubes were dispersed with little aggregation, thus, strongly suggesting that the poly(allylamine) chains have covered the single‐wall carbon nanotubes, which was further evidenced by transmission electron microscopy. The composites are soluble in water, and this solubilization process opens up new opportunities in the solution chemistry on pristine nanotubes.

Summary: The synthesis of aqueous dispersions of hybrid acrylic copolymer particles with either a monofunctional or a multifunctional polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane methacrylate comonomer has been performed by free radical heterophase polymerization. The miniemulsion process gives stable latexes, whereas the less controlled emulsion route results in colloidal instability of the products. The thermal and mechanical properties of the nanocomposite latex films have been preliminarily investigated.

Urchin‐like PANI microspheres with an average diameter of 5–10 µm have been successfully prepared. Their surfaces consist of highly oriented nanofibers of ≈30 nm diameter and 1 µm length. The solvent composition plays an important role in the formation process of urchin‐like PANI microspheres. The structure of the products has been characterized by FT‐IR, UV‐vis, and XRD. To investigate the self‐assembly of urchin‐like PANI microspheres, the effect of polymerization time on the morphology of the products has been studied. The morphological evolution process indicates that the urchin‐like microspheres originate from the self‐assembly of nanoplates, which then grow into urchin‐like microstructures with nanofibers on the surface.

PANI nanotubes were successfully prepared by using thin glass tubes as a single template in the presence of H4SiW12O40 and ammonium persulfate, which were used as dopant and oxidant, respectively, in this system. The structure and morphology of the PANI were characterized by IR spectrum, XRD pattern, SEM images, and TEM images. The inner diameter of PANI nanotubes was between 50 and 100 nm. This method employed here was a simple and effective way to prepare multifunctional PANI nanotubes. The gas response of the PANI nanotubes to a series of chemical vapors such as NH3, N2H4, and (C2H5)3N was studied. The results indicate that the PANI nanotubes show superior performance as chemical sensor.

Hyperbranched polymers constitute a unique class of branched macromolecules, where structural complexity is complemented by relative ease of synthesis. The increasing interest in the study of these materials is due to their distinctive properties, inherently tied to their complex molecular architecture, and is augmented by the continual growth of applications like catalysis, viscosity modifiers, and sensors. We report a structural model for HBPs based on fractal scaling of both mass and connectivity. This model is shown to be of use in understanding small angle scattering data, especially in comparison with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for structural characterization.

A series of novel temperature and pH responsive block copolymers composed of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly(L ‐lysine) (PLL) were synthesized. The effect of pH and the length of PLL on the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNIPAM, and the self‐assembly of these PLL‐based copolymers induced by temperature and pH changes were investigated by the cloud point method, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). These PNIPAM‐b‐PLL copolymers can self‐assemble into micelle‐like aggregates with PNIPAM as the hydrophobic block at acidic pH and high temperatures; and at alkaline pH and low temperatures, they can self‐assemble into particles with PLL as the hydrophobic block. The copolymers may have potential applications in biotechnological and biomedical areas as drug release carriers.

Bioconjugate amphiphiles comprising triterpene and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) were studied according to their thermoresponsive aggregation behavior (LCST) in water. Cholesteryl?PEO (CE) and betulinyl?PEO (BE) comprising <70 wt% PEO precipitated from water upon heating. CE, but not BE, solutions contained nanoscopic aggregates at room temperature causing different thermoprecipitation behaviors. Solutions containing 5 wt% solutions of BE with short PEO chains demonstrated dual thermoresponsive behavior, precipitating at high temperature and forming hydrogel at low temperature. A BE multiblock copolymer was found to form large aggregates, presumably vesicles, in water. Results suggest that the solution properties of triterpene–PEO amphiphiles can be controlled by the chemical composition and structure.

A new approach for the synthesis of polyaniline (PANI) nanostructures under UV light illumination has been developed, which is the first report of a templateless chemical process for preparing pure PANI nanowires. The acceleration effect of photo‐assistance on the polymerization can promote the homogeneous nucleation and elongation of the nanofibers and nanowires, leading to easy preparation of tunable diameters of the nanowires and nanofibers of PANI.

Blue emission of oxygen‐doped tertiary amine (triethylamine), a key unit of fluorescent poly(amido amine) dendrimer, was demonstrated. It was found that the fluorescence intensity could be further enhanced if the tertiary amines locate densely in the dendrimer interior as the branching sites. Moreover, a solvatochromic phenol blue, instead of oxygen, is able to induce the blue fluorescence of the tertiary amino‐branching sites based on a guaranteed host‐guest complexation of phenol blue molecules and dendrimer interior.

A template‐free method for the production of polypyrrole nanofibers is presented. By adding a small amount of bipyrrole into the oxidative polymerization of pyrrole, a drastic change in the morphology of the observed material is observed from large, granular particles to nanofibrils with an average diameter of 20 nm. This simple procedure allows for the production of polypyrrole nanofibers without the presence of surfactants or other structural directing agents. The polypyrrole nanofibers can form stable water dispersions which can be cast into films of sufficient quality to function as chemical sensors for analytes such as ammonia.

Polyaniline nanodisks have been synthesized successfully by the chemical oxidation polymerization of aniline by a self‐assembly process without the use of any acid. The thickness and lateral dimensions of the polyaniline nanodisks are in the range of 20–30 nm and 1–2 µm, respectively. The influence of synthetic parameters, such as the concentration of ammonium peroxydisulfate and pH, on the morphologies of polyaniline nanostructures have been investigated.

Summary: An amino‐functionalized bipyridine ligand was prepared in order to serve as a bridging unit to an activated low‐molecular‐weight monomethyl ether of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). Coordination of a ruthenium(II ) phenantroline precursor onto the formed PEG‐containing bipyridine ligand yielded a metal‐containing polymer which shows interesting properties for solar cell applications.

A fast method is presented for the calculation of the MSD and the MWD of polymers obtained via step‐growth polymerization of polyfunctional monomers bearing identical reactive groups (i.e., systems of type “Afi”). Using this method, the complete distribution can be calculated rapidly, not just the statistical averages of the polymer population such as or . The computed MSD and MWD give more insight than these averages and can be compared to similar data measured on actual polymer systems. The low‐ and intermediate molecular size/weight part of the distribution curves are calculated using a recurrence scheme, while the high‐molecular tail (large and very large polymers) of the distributions is derived from an asymptotic approximation of the associated generating functions.
