Mechanism of gold metal ion reduction, nanoparticle growth and size control in aqueous amphiphilic block copolymer solutions at ambient conditions

Spontaneous formation and efficient stabilization of gold nanoparticles with an average diameter of 7 approximately 20 nm from hydrogen tetrachloroaureate(III) hydrate (HAuCl4.3H2O) were achieved in air-saturated aqueous poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) block copolymer solutions at ambient temperature in the absence of any other reducing agent. The particle formation mechanism is considered here on the basis of the block copolymer concentration dependence of absorption spectra, the time dependence (kinetics) of AuCl4- reduction, and the block copolymer concentration dependence of particle size. The effects of block copolymer characteristics such as molecular weight (MW), PEO block length, PPO block length, and critical micelle concentration (cmc) are explored by examining several PEO-PPO-PEO block copolymers. Our observations suggest that the formation of gold nanoparticles from AuCl4- comprises three main steps: (1) reduction of metal ions by block copolymer in solution, (2) absorption of block copolymer on gold clusters and reduction of metal ions on the surface of these gold clusters, and (3) growth of metal particles stabilized by block copolymers. While both PEO and PPO blocks contribute to the AuCl4- reduction (step 1), the PEO contribution appears to be dominant. In step 2, the adsorption of block copolymers on the surface of gold clusters takes place because of the amphiphilic character of the block copolymer (hydrophobicity of PPO). The much higher efficiency of particle formation attained in the PEO-PPO-PEO block copolymer systems as compared to PEO homopolymer systems can be attributed to the adsorption and growth processes (steps 2 and 3) facilitated by the block copolymers. The size of the gold nanoparticles produced is dictated by the above mechanism; the size increases with increasing reaction activity induced by the block copolymer overall molecular weight and is limited by adsorption due to the amphiphilic character of the block copolymers.     

SYNTHESES OF STYRENE-METHYL METHACRYLATE BLOCK COPOLYMER BY POLYAZOAMIDE AS INITIATOR

Polyazoamide(PAA) was used as initiator to prepare block copolymer P(MMA-b-St) byfree radical polymerization. The fraction of block copolymer was about 50%. The structureof the block-copolymer was characterized by IR and the results of ~1H-NMR and GPCshowed that the content of the block and the molecular weight (M_w) of the prepolymerand block copolymer could be controlled by varying the mol ratio of styrene/PAA andMMA/prepolymer. DSC and TEM results revealed that the block copolymer has twoseparated glass transition temperatures and phase separation within the domain structure.     

Application of solid phase peptide synthesis to engineering PEO–peptide block copolymers for drug delivery

This work describes a simple, versatile solid-phase peptide-synthesis (SPPS) method for preparing micelle-forming poly(ethylene oxide)-block-peptide block copolymers for drug delivery. To demonstrate its utility, this SPPS method was used to construct two series of micelle-forming block copolymers (one of constant core-composition and variable length; the other of constant core length and variable composition). The block copolymers were then used to study in detail the effect of size and composition on micellization. The various block copolymers were prepared by a combination of SPPS for the peptide block, followed by solution–phase conjugation of the peptide block with a proprionic acid derivative of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) to form the PEO-b-peptide block copolymer. The composition of each block component was characterized by mass spectrometry (MALDI and ES-MS). Block copolymer compositions were characterized by ¹H NMR. All the block copolymers were found to form micelles as judged by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and light scattering analysis. To demonstrate their potential as drug delivery systems, micelles prepared from one member of the PEO-b-peptide block copolymer series were physically loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). Micelle static and dynamic stability were found to correlate strongly with micelle core length. In contrast, these same micellization properties appear to be a complex function of core composition, and no clear trends could be identified from among the set of compositionally varying, fixed length block copolymer micelles. We conclude that SPPS can be used to construct biocompatible block copolymers with well-defined core lengths and compositions, which in turn can be used to study and to tailor the behavior of block copolymer micelles.     

Synthesis of poly(p‐phenylene)‐poly(4‐diphenylaminostyrene) bipolar block copolymers with a well‐controlled and defined polymer chain structure

A poly(p‐phenylene) (PPP)‐poly(4‐diphenylaminostyrene) (PDAS) bipolar block copolymer was synthesized for the first time. A prerequisite prepolymer, poly(1,3‐cyclohexadiene) (PCHD)‐PDAS binary block copolymer, in which the PCHD block consisted solely of 1,4‐cyclohexadiene (1,4‐CHD) units, was synthesized by living anionic block copolymerization of 1,3‐cyclohexadiene and 4‐diphenylaminostyrene. To obtain the PPP‐PDAS bipolar block copolymer, the dehydrogenation of this prepolymer with quinones was examined, and tetrachloro‐1,2‐(o)‐benzoquinone was found to be an appropriate dehydrogenation reagent. This dehydrogenation reaction was remarkably accelerated by ultrasonic irradiation, effectively yielding the target PPP‐PDAS bipolar block copolymer. The hole and electron drift mobilities for PPP‐PDAS bipolar block copolymer were both on the order of 10^?3 to 10^?4 cm²/V·s, with a negative slope when plotted against the square root of the applied field. Therefore, this bipolar block copolymer was found to act as a bipolar semi‐conducting copolymer. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011     

Compatibilizing effect of polyarylate-polystyrene block copolymer in polyarylate/polystyrene blends

The compatibilizing effect of polyarylate-polystyrene (PAR-PS) block copolymer prepared from macroazo initiator was examined in polyarylate/polystyrene blends from the view-points of morphology, density, and thermal, mechanical, and rheological properties. PARPS block copolymer enhanced the mutual dissolution of the homopolymers. Reduced dispersed-domain size and increased density showed the efficiency of the block copolymer as a compatibilizing agent. Results from mechanical and rheological properties could also be explained by the compatibilizing effect of PAR-PS block copolymer in the blends. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and Poly(vinyl acetate) Diblock Copolymers via MADIX Process

The synthesis of diblock copolymers of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) was performed by macromolecular design via interchange of xanthates (MADIX) process. Following the preparation of methyl (isopropoxycarbonothioyl) sulfanyl acetate (MIPCTSA) as chain transfer agent, it was reacted with vinyl acetate to obtain PVAc macro-chain transfer agent. Then, block copolymerization was completed by successive addition of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM). ¹H NMR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of both blocks in the copolymer structure, with the expected composition based on the feed ratio. Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) was used to investigate the relative values of molecular characteristics. Only 20% of PVAc was converted to block copolymer. The resultant block copolymer structures were further examined in terms of their morphologies as well as critical micelle concentration (CMC) by using ESEM and Fluorescence Excitation Spectroscopic techniques, respectively. Morphological characterization confirmed amphiphilic block copolymer formation with the existence of mainly ca. 100 nm well distributed micelles. The thermo responsive amphiphilic behavior of the block copolymer solutions were followed by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) technique.

Coupling reaction of poly(α-methylstyryl) anion with (MMA–α-methylstyrene) block copolymer

(MMA–α-methylstyrene)block copolymer was reacted with poly(α-methylstyryl)anion at ?78°C in a mixture of good tetrahydrofuran (THF) and poor methylcyclohexane solvents. The reaction conditions were chosen so as to produce graft copolymers made up of a backbone (AB-type block copolymer) and a single branched chain (1:2 graft copolymer). Gel permeation chromatograph (GPC), osmotic pressure measurement, and elemental analysis were used for the characterization of 1:2 graft copolymer. It appeared that poly(α-methylstyryl)anion reacted with the end pendant groups located farthest away from the branched point of AB-type block copolymer, when the dimensions of AB-type block copolymer molecule are small.     

Mixed Polyether-Polyester Multiblock Copolymer and its Blood Compatibility

A new type of polyether-polyester block copolymer (MPEE) consisting of two components of polyethers (PTMGT and PEGT) as soft segment and one polyester (PET) as hard segment has been synthesized. It has also been investigated in comparison with blended polyether-polyester block copolymer (BPEE) consisting of the same composition ratio of hard and soft segments and both of the two polyethers (PTMG and PEG). It was found that 1) Improvement of blood compatibility of polyether-polyester block copolymer can be achieved by introducing the hydrophilic component PEG into it; 2) generally the blood compatibility of MPEE is better than that of BPEE; 3) at a specific molar ratio of PTMGT-PET to PEGT-PET (60/40), the blended copolymer (BPEE 60/40) shows the best blood compatibility, as well as the best mechanical properties. This might be related to smaller-size microphaseseparated structures. The relationship between blood compatibility and structure of the copolymer is discussed. Polyether-polyester block copolymer containing hydrophilic and hydrophobic components might be a useful material with antithrombogenicity.     

Block copolymer compatibilizers for polystyrene/poly(dimethylsiloxane) blends

Symmetric polystyrene (PS)–poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) diblock copolymers were mixed into a 20% dispersion of PDMS in PS. The effect of adding the block copolymer on the blend morphology was examined as a function of the block copolymer molecular weight (M_n,bcp), concentration, and viscosity ratio (η_r). When blended together with the PS and PDMS homopolymers, most of the block copolymer appeared as micelles in the PS matrix. Even when the copolymer was preblended into the PDMS dispersed phase, block copolymer micelles in the PS matrix phase were observed with transmission electron microscopy after mixing. Adding 16 kg/mol PS–PDMS block copolymer dramatically reduced the PDMS particle size, but the morphology, as examined by scanning electron microscopy, was unstable upon thermal annealing. Adding 156 kg/mol block copolymer yielded particle sizes similar to those of blends with 40 or 83 kg/mol block copolymers, but only blends with 83 kg/mol block copolymer were stable after annealing. For a given value of M_n,bcp, a minimum PDMS particle size was observed when η_r ～ 1. When η_r = 2.6, thermally stable, submicrometer particles as small as 0.6 μm were observed after the addition of only 3% PS–PDMS diblock (number‐average molecular weight = 83 kg/mol) to the blend. As little as 1% 83 kg/mol block copolymer was sufficient to stabilize a 20% dispersion of 1.1‐μm PDMS particles in PS. Droplet size reduction was attributed to the prevention of coalescence caused by small amounts of block copolymer at the interface. The conditions under which block copolymer interfacial adsorption and interpenetration were facilitated were explained with Leibler's brush theory. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
