Phase transition behavior of unimolecular micelles with thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) coronas

This paper describes the double phase transition behavior of a thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) brush at the surface of a hydrophobic core. Reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) was conducted by using a hyperbranched polyester (Boltorn H40) based macroRAFT agent. The resultant multiarm star block copolymer (H40-PNIPAM) exists as unimolecular micelles with hydrophobic H40 as the core, densely grafted PNIPAM brush as the shell. A combination of laser light scattering (LLS) and microdifferential scanning calorimetry (micro-DSC) studies of H40-PNIPAM in aqueous solution reveals double phase transitions of the PNIPAM corona, which is in contrast to the fact that free PNIPAM homopolymer in aqueous solution exhibits a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) at approximately 32 degrees C. The first phase transition takes place in the broad temperature range 20-30 degrees C, which can be tentatively ascribed to the n-cluster-induced collapse of the inner region of the PNIPAM brush close to the H40 core; the second phase transition occurs above 30 degrees C, which can be ascribed to the outer region of PNIPAM brush. Employing the RAFT chain extension technique, the inner and outer part of PNIPAM brush were then selectively labeled with pyrene derivatives, respectively; temperature-dependent excimer fluorescence measurements further support the conclusion that the inner part of PNIPAM brush collapses first at lower temperatures, followed by the collapse of the outer part at higher temperatures.     

Synthesis and supramolecular self‐assembly of thermosensitive amphiphilic star copolymers based on a hyperbranched polyether core

A novel amphiphilic thermosensitive star copolymer with a hydrophobic hyperbranched poly (3‐ethyl‐3‐(hydroxymethyl)oxetane) (HBPO) core and many hydrophilic poly(2‐(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) arms was synthesized and used as the precursor for the aqueous solution self‐assembly. All the copolymers directly aggregated into core–shell unimolecular micelles (around 10 nm) and size‐controllable large multimolecular micelles (around 100 nm) in water at room temperature, according to pyrene probe fluorescence spectrometry and ¹H NMR, TEM, and DLS measurements. The star copolymers also underwent sharp, thermosensitive phase transitions at a lower critical solution temperature (LCST), which were proved to be originated from the secondary aggregation of the large micelles driven by increasing hydrophobic interaction due to the dehydration of PDMAEMA shells on heating. A quantitative variable temperature NMR analysis method was designed by using potassium hydrogen phthalate as an external standard and displayed great potential to evaluate the LCST transition at the molecular level. The drug loading and temperature‐dependent release properties of HBPO‐star‐PDMAEMA micelles were also investigated by using indomethacin as a model drug. The indomethacin‐loaded micelles displayed a rapid drug release at a temperature around LCST. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 668–681, 2008     

Study on Dual Stimuli-Responsive Supramolecular Diblock Copolymers

In this paper, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new stimuli-responsive diblock polymer, i.e., methoxy poly (ethylene glycol)-block-Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (mPEG-b-PNIPAM), which belongs to the family of supramolecular amphiphiles. For this purpose, β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-functionalized methoxy poly (ethylene glycol) (mPEG-CD) and adamantine (AD)-modified poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM-AD) were synthesized. The diblock polymer mPEG-b-PNIPAM was then obtained by host–guest inclusion between mPEG-CD and PNIPAM-AD. The structure and molecular weight of the mPEG-b-PNIPAM was confirmed by ¹HNMR and GPC, respectively. Above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST), mPEG-b-PNIPAM can self-assemble into nano-structures in aqueous solutions with PNIPAM block as the core and mPEG block as the corona. The aggregation behavior of mPEG-b-PNIPAM were revealed by UV-vis, DLS measurements, and TEM observations. The mPEG-b-PNIPAM was further utilized to construct Dox@mPEG-b-PNIPAM micelles at 37°C in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). No detectable amount of Dox was released from the micelles at 37°C. When cooling to 27°C or adding a competitive reagent, however, release of Dox from the micelles was observed.     

聚异丙基丙烯酰胺高分子在甲醇水溶液中溶解性的拉曼光谱研究

通过测量-13℃(低于低临界溶解温度(LCST))时聚异丙基丙烯酰胺(PNIPAM)高分子在甲醇水溶液中的拉曼光谱非一致效应(NCE),试图从PNIPAM与溶剂分子间的相互作用角度理解PNIPAM的溶解性.通过比较甲醇水溶液中加入PNIPAM前后甲醇分子C-O伸缩所对应的NCE变化,我们认为:甲醇摩尔分数(x)在1.0-0.90范围内,PNIPAM优先吸附甲醇分子;x=0.80-0.50时,PNIPAM优先吸附水分子;而x=0.50-0.20时,PNIPAM破坏了甲醇与水所形成的三元环稳定结构.进一步比较加入PNIPAM或其单元结构--异丙基丙酰胺(NIPPA)对甲醇水溶液NCE的影响,发现PNIPAM通过链段间的疏水协同作用吸附了甲醇分子.我们认为在甲醇水溶液的低浓度区间,这种协同作用破坏了甲醇与水形成的三元环团簇结构,而当温度升高时这种结构又重新形成,导致了PNIPAM在甲醇水溶液中的混致不溶现象.     

Self‐assembly of thermo‐ and pH‐responsive poly(acrylic acid)‐b‐poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) micelles for drug delivery

Self‐assembled thermo‐ and pH‐responsive poly(acrylic acid)‐b‐poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PAA‐b‐PNIPAM) micelles for entrapment and release of doxorubicin (DOX) was described. Block copolymer PAA‐b‐PNIPAM associated into core‐shell micelles in aqueous solution with collapsed PNIPAM block or protonated PAA block as the core on changing temperature or pH. Complexation of DOX with PAA‐b‐PNIPAM triggered by the electrostatic interaction and release of DOX from the complexes due to the changing of pH or temperature were studied. Complex micelles incorporated with DOX exhibited pH‐responsive and thermoresponsive drug release profile. The release of DOX from micelles was suppressed at pH 7.2 and accelerated at pH 4.0 due to the protonation of carboxyl groups. Furthermore, the cumulative release of DOX from complex micelles was enhanced around LCST ascribed to the structure deformation of the micelles. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Salt and Heat Induced Aggregation of Diblock Copolymers of Sodium 2-(acrylamido)-2-methylpropanesulfonate and N-Isopropylacrylamide in Aqueous Solutions

Heat and salt induced aggregation of three well-defined double hydrophilic block copolymers (DHBCs) of sodium 2-(acrylamido)-2-methylpropanesulfonate (AMPS) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) with constant chain length of the PAMPS block (with number-average degree of polymerization, DP _n  = 61) and varying chain length of the PNIPAM block with DP _n  = 11, 23, and 34 synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) controlled radical polymerization was investigated by turbidity, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and ¹H NMR measurements. In the presence of salt or with an increase in temperature, the diblock copolymers form micelles with a PNIPAM core and PAMPS corona. The heat and salt induced aggregation in dilute aqueous solutions dependant on the molecular characteristics of the DHBC (DP _n of the PNIPAM block) was observed. The DHBC becomes amphiphilic as the PNIPAM block loses hydrophilicity at higher temperature above its lower critical solution temperature (LCST). Furthermore, the presence of salt induces salting out effect of the uncharged PNIPAM block. The diblock copolymer thus forms nanosized aggregates at a high temperature or in the presence of salt. These aggregates may be multiple aggregates due to inter-micellar aggregation of the spherical core-corona micelles.     

Two-stage collapse of unimolecular micelles with double thermoresponsive coronas

Phase transition behavior of unimolecular dendritic three-layer nanostructures with dual thermoresponsive coronas is studied. Successive reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerizations of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMA) were conducted using fractionated fourth-generation hyperbranched polyester (Bolton H40) based macroRAFT agent. At lower temperatures (<20 degrees C), dendritic macromolecules H40-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (H40-PNIPAM-PDMA) exist as unimolcular core-shell-corona nanostructures with hydrophobic H40 as the core, swollen PNIPAM as the inner shell, and swollen PDMA as the corona. PNIPAM and PDMA homopolymers undergo phase transitions at their lower critical solution temperatures (LCST), which are found to be 32 degrees C for PNIPAM and 40-50 degrees C for PDMA, respectively. Upon continuously heating through the LCSTs of PNIPAM and PDMA, such dendritic unimolecular micelles exhibit two-stage thermally induced collapse. This process is reversible with a two-stage reswelling upon cooling. Laser light scattering, micro-differential scanning calorimetry, and excimer fluorescence measurements are used to investigate the double phase transitions.
